Of those two wheels, the 18's, and I have those 20" wheels. But for other wheel styles and aftermarket I prefer 20's.

Just a personal preference thing, that's why they make so many.

I have sport 20's and I'm going to aftermarket 17's by the end of the summer when these tires wear out. I like the less wheel, more sidewall look on a truck.

18’s! I would have gone 17’s if Fuel made Beast wheels in a 17 for an F150.

Same here. Had 18's and went to 17" Raptor wheels.

Great info, thanks guys. I may need to look into the 17's.

What all is required for reprogramming the TPMS sensors and such?

I swapped from 20s to 17s when I put 33" tires on. I wanted the taller sidewall for better ride provided by the taller sidewall.

Programming TPMS - at least on my 2015, nothing needs to be done. They automatically registered, and they also automatically reprogram to the correct location after a rotation.

Out of the two you show, I think the 18's not only look better, but I know they ride a lot better. I currently have the 18's, but am planning on going to some 17" raptor wheels soon. Here's my truck now with a 1.5" level.

My preference is 17” up to 33”
18” up to 35”
20” anything bigger than 35”
I just got new wheels and ended up with 20” wheels because just couldn’t find 18” that I liked in gunmetal grey. Found some in 17” but I don’t like too much sidewall. My new tires measure 33.7”, 285/60r20 Cooper AT3 XLT.
I’m happy with the ride and look of my new setup, but I would get 18s if possible.
