Some tire advice PLEASE....
Hi all.
I've been talking with some friends (Brad) and other about what to do on my 2002 F-150 Screw --- For wheels & rims..... I'd like some more advice. Let me tell you my 2 options I have so far:
1.) 17 inch MB motoring Precise wheels w/ BF Goodrich LT 285/70R17 All Terrain T/A KO Tires......
OR
2.) 18 inch MB motoring Precise wheels w/ BF Goodrich LT 285/65R18 All Terrain T/A KO tires......
Now -- Stock --- I have Goodyear LT 265/70R17 --- on 17 inch ford wheels
So -- Which 1 should I get? I kind of like the 18 inch wheels but will the tires look too big? Anyone have any experience here with these options?
Thanks

Of the two tires you are comparing the are relatively the same sizes height wise although the 285/65r18 will seem a little wider, either way they will both fit nicely if you have a stock suspension. Price is your only concern and you will be paying a premium for 18 inch rims with rubber, if it were me i would go with the 285/70r17 rubber and keep the stock rims, I think ford did a nice job with there selection of rims for these trucks especially the "XTR" package.....LOL. Check out my gallery if you want to see what I mean, I plan on putting on some 285 dueller revo's in the near future.
