You started a pic thread with no eye candy? For shame...
I don't have a black truck. Mine are pretty boring, but they work for now.

Hi...and welcome to FTE. If you read my signature it will tell you that they are 20" wheels. Many users here complete signatures to answer questions just like that one. I'm not meaning to be a tool, just pointing it out so you know for future.

Savage.... curious how much your mileage dropped(if any) when you put those wheels/tires on?? I have stock 275/65R20 michelins right now. I do some pulling but want a better look. Thinking this is it. Any info would be appreciated.

I bought my truck with those wheels and tires on it, but just replaced the tires with the same. I would expect 2-3 miles per gallon to drop off though.

Going to 35" on my '12 - 250 I only lost just over a mile a gallon. City driving off course is worse but still got about 13 pulling the 30' cargo trailer just over a hundred miles today.





Savage have it told you how much I like your rims.

I would like to know what aftermarket wheels meet the stock wheel weight capacity. I'm having some difficulty choosing 20" black wheels that have at least 3500 lb capacity and don't have the fake chrome bolt look.

Great example of how much wheel size and tread pattern affect the mileage. You have smaller diameter wheels than I do...I believe like 18's? The Terra's are also an all terrain tire vs. the mud tires that I have on mine. The MT's are also heavier than the all terrain tires. The point is buying wheels and tires is going to affect mileage. To what degree is proportionate to what you put on the the truck and how much you stomp on the vertical pedal on the right.

majkthreads, have I told you that you have great taste in rims?
