2017/2018 F250 XLT leveled w/ 35's on 18" rims

I'm ordering the 2018 F250 XLT Chrome package truck. Truck has 18" rims on it. Does anyone have a 2017 or 2018 with leveling kit and 35" tires on the 18" rims? I have a tire shop here that has a set of 20" factory rims for $600 but no tires. Just want to see what the truck would look like if I kept my 18's. Thanks

If I drive it like I want I get around 12mpg. I can get 13 + when I try, but that's no fun, lol.

One of best looking 250's I've seen. Looks awesome!!!! You like the 6.2? I've had 3 diesels in a row and am tired of the upkeep. Don't really need the diesel so am going with the 6.2. I've had 7.3,6.0 and 6.4 diesels so wanting to try the 6.2.

I appreciate it man, I don't do a lot of interstate, but I've noticed that the mpg's seem to fall off over 70 mph. (I run 80 on the interstate) so my mpg's stay around the same as city. If you disciplined yourself to do 70mph it would probably do decent. I just can't do it, I live in metro Atlanta and I'd get ran over doing 70. I have 3.73's so I imagine the 4.30's would be even worse.

I love the 6.2. My last truck was a 2013 ram with the cummins. I don't miss it at all. I was only getting 14mpgs in that truck on the same commute and diesel cost more per gallon. The 6.2 is a lot cheaper/easier to maintain. As long as your not towing all the time there is really no need for a diesel in my opinion. My 6.2 is faster 0-60 than my cummins was it just doesn't have the low end torque of the diesel.

General Grabbers, 35x12.50R18, amazing offroad traction. They were a little loud when brand new and have actually quieted down quite a bit. I found them for $850 installed at Discount Tire.

I got pics for days! Thanks Google Pixel unlimited full rez photo storage!






After I got new wheels. Good pic of the tread though.
