Here are the platinum wheels on my 16 XLT SCrew 2wd. I added about 1.5 inches overall due to larger wheel diameter & tire size when I made the swap.
Unless you added a leveling kit, You actually only added 0.75" to your overall height because the circumferase difference between the tires (32-30.5 = 1.5) is actually divided by 2 since your height and ground clearance increases by the difference in radius between the tires.

You're correct, i forgot to mention I did a leveling kit as well.
Looks really good! Some chrome skullcaps on your mirrors would really tie the whole look together (chome front end with the polished wheels)
Thanks. I keep going back and forth between chrome or white caps. I'm actually not a fan of the chrome, so I've been debating switching out for the lariat bumper to tone it down just a little. Even though I've replaced the front bumper since that pic with a 4WD one for the tow hooks (didn't look right without the indentations).
We will soon see how the 20" Platinum wheels and tires look on my 2016 XL. I just brought a complete set home and they are currently at the dealer having new sensors installed and balanced. I may be able to get them mounted tomorrow afternoon.
These things are monsters compared to the 18's that are on my truck now. There goes the fuel mileage.
Wondering myself how much the mpg will change i have a set of 20 inch rims from a sport package i have yet to put on my xl 2.7 i hope it doesnt change much ill find out soon.

Jordan, we lost about 1.5mpg or so when we leveled and swapped to the platinum 20s on our screw with the 2.7.

What size are the platinum tires? Just curious as larger tires record less miles..that can account for lost mpg so it might not be that bad...unless the speedo was calibrated
