Quick Question Please

Hey y’all, I have a 2004 F150 STX, not the Heritage version, the one with sort of a quasi stepside. Currently it has stock rims with 275/65/18’s on it. I notice there is a metal arm about 1/4 inch from the inside sidewall, but that doesn’t touch the tire ever, so no problem. My question is has anyone ever swapped to stock 20” wheels with the stock 275/60/20 tire on them successfully ? I’m looking around for new truck take offs and the 20” takeoffs seem a little more affordable for some reason. Just was curious as to y’all’s experience. Thank you for any insight!

David

stock wheels will fit no problem... they all have the same off set and backspacing. that tire size should be about the same with a slightly lower profile.

Are you maybe talking about a flare side? My '07 flare side has 275/55-20 stock size tires.
