Curious - has anyone put 20" wheels and tires on their Lariat SCab 4x2 and maintained a similar ride quality. I'm not looking for greatly superior performance or greatly superior dirt traction but DO want to end up with a similarly smooth ride to what I have now.

Assume that the wheels weigh the same or slightly less than current and that the wheel/tire package would be about 1" wider than stock. Do you have any tire brand or size recommendations?

thanks

 

Check out the pics of my 4X2 Lariat...after I put the DayStar lift on the front I went to my local Discount Tire shop and purchased some American Racing Motto 20 X 9 rims with Nitto Terra Grapler 305/55/20...rides as smooth as the day I bought it...enjoy...Chip

 

i have a 04 f-150 cc lariat 2wd and i have 20x9 on it and 305/50R20 and its lowered 2 inches in front and 2" in the back

 

Cowchip13- Very nice looking truck! I love the wheels and tires. What is the exact model of the wheels. I know they are American Racing Motto, but what is the exact model. I can not find the wheels on the A.R. website. Thank you in advance for an answer!
Again, Nice truck!!

 

Thanks...you won't find them on the AR webpage...they are made for Discount Tire stores only...if you have a Discount Tire store in your area call them, they can fix you up...www.discounttire.com...Chip

 

so far these are the wheels I am planning for a Black Lariat SCab - Boze Forged "Twisted Fatal 6"

 

i like my ride. but i went with 295 45 20's. the 305's are too tall for my drop. there is a slight difference in ride quality but nothing really that noticeable. they are a V rated tire giving them stiffer sidewalls but that comes with 20's unless you get goodyears that come in a H. 285 50 20 or 275 45 20 goodyears. if you dont want a speedo change stick with the 30" sizes. 295 40 or 45 the 305 50 is a 32" tire. Pics of my truck www.lonuf.com my site has had an issue so there isnt much to see.

 

Just read a good article about this in Motor trend (June 2004?). Here is the online article: http://motortrend.com/features/consu...eel/index.html
