It looks good, and I have never said that before about trucks with big diameter wheels. Nice job!

Great looking truck! Like you im waiting for lowering kit options, most likely going with ihc suspension kit once it comes out. I couldn't wait to throw my 24s on too and I'm going to take the rear block out for the rear like you did. Did you have to change the U bolts or just used the same ones?

Thank you, and yes I just re-used the factory U bolts.

I'm fine with 24's, but have never cared for the ultra low profile tires, even on sports cars. Gives me the impression there is no 'meat' to put the power to the ground.

On a positive note, you should have no issues with wallowing while hauling

I am not a fan of big wheels and rubber band tires on trucks, but at least you aren't doing it on a jacked up 4X4 that would be totally useless off road. A sport truck is certainly a more appropriate use.

Yep! All they need to do now is pull the control arm bushings, burn out the rubber and pour in some Shore 90 urethane!

Then today my 24" DUB 8 ball wheels showed up on 305/35/24's so I had to put them on even though I haven't decided on a lowering kit yet.
Anyway, here are a couple pics... If anyone has any suggestions on a lowering kit I'm all ears. The truck is a 2021 F150XLT Sport, 4x4 with the 302a package and the 5.0 coyote.

2021 on 24's

what’s the offset on these rims and what did you do to the wheel wells I had a rim shop tell me 24x12 with -44mm won’t fit on 2021 f150 with 2” lift

Did they mistake -44 for the stock offset of +44?

+44 absolutely will not fit with a 12" wide rim. -44 would place the inner rim 1.2" further away from the suspension.

At the other side of the wheel, you're 5.7" further out. Won't fit without removing the crash bars unless maybe with a 15 profile tire.
