Tire and Wheel Suggestion

I own a 2004 F150 4x2 Lariat Super Crew, 5.4L, 40K miles. I'm now running 20's with custom wheels and I'm looking to change looks, more all-terrain. I would like suggestions on what ATV tire and wheel combo will help me acheive this. I'm not looking to lift, yet, maybe later. Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestions. Do either of you have a suggestion on maximum tire size for a stock F150? I really am trying to change the look without a lift, yet.

I had a 3" level kit installed this weekend and have purchased the following: 285x70x18 Nitto Terra Grapplers and MB Motorsport 18" V-Drive wheels. I'll keep you posted on my satisfaction of the tire and wheel combo. Dealer is giving me 30 days to change my mind after installation at no additional charge.

Shock and Struts?

The wife is really upset with me now. Since I tow a travel trailer on occasion, I also just purchased a Firestone Air Ride Springs assist kit, actually air bag type stuff to level out the back when towing the trailer and with a quad in the bed.
My question is, should I also change the shocks and struts? My truck has 40K miles and rides great, but I don't want to sacrifice anything..since the wife's already mad
