Default 285/65/20 or 305/55/20 or 305/65/18?

Hello there, long time reader; first time poster. I have a 2005 f150 fx4 that currently have the 20" stock rims/tires. Recently installed is a 3" level kit. I've got my wheels and tires narrowed down to Pro Comp 6001 or Incubus Poltergeist with either BFgoodrich or Nitto Terra G's. Originally I had the size narrowed down to the 305/65/18 but recently saw a couple 20" rims that looked good with either 285/65/20 or 305/55/20. I'm having a hard time deciding between these 3 sizes. I've scoured the internet looking at pics but wondered if there were some out there that haven't posted pics of their truck yet that might help me make up my mind?

Stockers on 275/65/20 BF Goodrich All-Terrain. I bought them from Onlinetires.com for $245, shipped from CA to GA in 5 days from Fed-EX.

Right now they have a special for free shipping. I paid $1,145.79 because of shipping to GA. Out the door, their price is $1,144 now. That's a $1.79 cheaper!

Ok. I've now got it narrowed down to these two. I'm almost deinately going with the 285/65/18 like on the white truck. Can any of you guys photoshop the wheels/tires from the white truck onto the red truck?

@HoppyFX4 Your truck is nearly an exact copy of mine! Same wheels, cab, BLACK, and tires (although mine are 285/60/20s). And mine is an 04, so it has the square fog lights.

Ok. I added a poll.
So far I've added to my stock 2005 f150 fx4: 3" leveling kit and dual exhaust with Magnaflow muffler SI/DO with stainless slash tips coming out 45 degrees.
I need to get these wheels and tires going now and need your help making a decision.
I've got "before" pics and video and will post "after" pics and video when completed.
Thanks!
