What size are the stock wheels on an 05 SD Lariat FX4? 17? 18?

Is that your truck? It should say on the tire. Last number in the tire size is the rim.

The ones you have pictured came 17" I believe.

Well it's 99.9% my truck, I'll be picking it up on Friday from the stealership (a Chevy dealership, YIKES, hey it was the best vehicle on the lot . But the owner can't be all bad, he bought the first 08 Corvette ZR1 produced for $1 million ). So it's not readily availible at the moment.

I was just weighing the options of when I level the front and put 350 blocks in the back what tires will cost. You say 17's, I hope so. That's as big as I see necessary.

I appreciate the help but yeah I know to look at the sidewall, I'm pretty sure that it has 17's on it, just thought that someone would know for sure.

Thanks

Man, is that rust in the rear fender-well? If so, I hope you are getting it for a real cheap price. With that much rust on the frame, it can't be long before you start seeing it in the body panels too.

Seems to me that I remember some other post on here that said the 2005 F250's had 17" wheels and the 18's were standard on the F350's.

Just from looking at your picture I'm guessing those are 17's. Here's why - I have an 05 F350 and have been tire shopping. Bridgestone does not make the Dueller A/T in 18".

No it's not rust, there is a lot of scoria (not sure on the spelling, but it's a red colored rock that they use on gravel roads) on the gravel roads in this neck of the woods.

Thanks to all for the input!
