Wheel and tire help...

2006 F150 4x4 SCREW 2.5 Autospring - stock 18's

Go with 17x8 with 4.25 bs and 295x70x17 Nittos
or 18x9 with 4.5 bs and 325x60x18 Nittos

I am thinking it would look better with the 17x8's - what do you think?

please help, im ready to order

I would stick with the factory rims. keep the same width profile and just go for more diameter

the 33" tire is safest for just a leveling kit

I'd stick with 18's but I wouldn't do Nitto's. I really don't see what the big deal is with everyone and Nitto's. They aren't my cup of tea! Go BFG's!!!
