Default I went from stock 18s to 20s

I have a 2004 lariat and thought I might update the look a bit without it looking too custom. I think the later model 20" wheels look good on it. The tires are shot so I am getting Michelin LTS MS2's on Thursday.

Looks great! I love the oem 20s I also replaced my stock ones with the stock premiums. They really add a touchier class or sportyness to it.

Those rims dress up well too if you ever want to. I have the same wheels on mine.

Default Good point

I forgot about the speedometer problem. How do you fix it? I wanted to get a set of wheel locks. Does anyone have a recommendation for locks?

Where did you find them? I've been looking for years for a decent set of oem 20's. I do like my 18's but the 20's just fill out the truck.

Speedo won't be off if you put the right tire on them



Quick Reply: I went from stock 18s to 20s
