Style not functionality....
Hey guys, bought a 2005 xlt. its 2 wheel drive and i don't take it offroad but want that offroad look. I want to be able to fit 20" rims with 35" tires under there, that being said, i know nothing about lifts. What do i need, what would be best, and remember i just want style not functionality. Thanks

I have 18" and 35's, they look plenty big. for 20's to look proportionate to beefy tires (offroad look) you need like 37's.

The smallest rim you will be able to run is a 17" due to the size of the brakes. Do an 18" wheel, 33x12.5's, and maybe a 3" front level and a 2" rear lift block. You'll be good to go without having to spend too much money.

Depends what kind of "off-road" style your going for.
2 1/2" Suspension (level and blocks) and a 3" body lift will do it. Or straight 6" suspension.
