Change Gears?
I have an 08 F150 King Ranch 4x4. Today I installed a 2.5" daystar leveling kit. The install went really good, it was very easy. I want to go get new tires tomorow and am thinking about going with 285 65 20's on my factory 20" wheels. I am debating whether to buy Goodyear MTRs or BFG AT's
My questions are:
1. Will I have any issues with rubbing with this tire?
2. With a 35" tire will I need to change my gear ratio? I pull trailors a little and don't need to sacrafice power.
3. What will this do to my fuel ecomony?
4. I would also like a set of 35x12.5x20 to go on the factory wheels, but am afraid that they would rub... What are your opinions? Anyone running the same set-up?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Cole
