Thanks... everyone who seems them around town say they look frickin' sweet on the truck.

I really can't tell any difference on the height of the truck... the only thing that I notice is that the wheel wells a more filled up with tire.

I got the from 4wheelparts.com for their current prices and then had them installed by Discount Tires.

As for a profile shot I'll see what I can do about getting that

Are you still geared 3.73?

Notice any difference in fuel economy/driveability? Did you need to recalibrate your speedo?

Milwaukee... I think the gearing has changed but only slightly as the new tire s have an overall diameter of 34.7" and the stock's were 33.7"... and regarding the speedo I have not had it re-calibrated because from what I've found out if the speedo shows 70mph I'm really going 67-68mph with the new tires, so to me it not that big of deal. As for fuel economy I've not noticed a hit what so ever, and the ride seems to have improved over the stock Conti's.

Also here's the side profile photo y'all requested...

Photo #10

If you guys need a more detailed photo of something let me know and I'll see what I can do

Awesome... Thanks for the pic and all the information.


I wanted new tires bad, but since getting stuck last weekend with the conti's in a situation I KNOW I wouldn't have with the BFG's my old truck had.. I've been even more motivated to find a replacement for the contimentals.

After seeing those on your truck and all the positive feedback I think I've found what I was looking for.
Many thanks!

Thanks for the picture jank. Exactly what we were looking for. I am still flip flopping between the 325 60 18 and the 325 65 18. I don't want to mess with shift points and loosing torque because I tow a 34ft toyhauler. I am still leaning towards the 325 60 18, but those sure do look good on your truck. Merry Christmas.

Jank,

Thanks for the photos and your truck does look sharp! I do site work for a living so I need good AT tires. Have you been off road yet? any rub ? I'm leaning toward the 60s as there a little closer to stock height.

Nebraska... my truck just has the FX4 Off-Road package, no plow or heavy service packages.

sinclair... I've just had the truck down a couple country farm roads, but nothing to hard core, I'm actually hoping to do that sometime this week after work just to seek how she performs and if they'll be any rubbing once the actions gets going.

I hope Jank doesn't mind my answering for him. Yes, those are the stock 18" rims.

Man that looks great. Do us all a big favor and let us know how the tires are wearing on those stock rims. I know I put some 305/70's on my stock 01 wheels and the middle wore out real fast. Got a leveling kit for the 05 for Xmas and I think it'll look awesome with those 35's on it. Those are great pics.

SOmething to keep in mind

Remember with the 20" rims ford does put stock 35 on these trucks. The Goodyear ats tires are 34.2 or 34.4 overall. JUst the width is different from stock really withthis setup.

Please correct any misstatements I may have made here.

Interesting... Thanks for that info. Makes me feel better about what I'm doing to my gear ratio putting those on vs. the stock contimentals.
