Default What Should I Do?

I have an 04 F150 Lariat 2wd and don't really plan on mudding ot going off road any time soon.

Just bought a 2.5 front leveling kit to even her out and plan on buying some 33x12.5xr20 with 20x12 wheels -44 offset.

Do you guys have any idea of what kind of tire I should buy? I will probably buy a moto metal wheel.

Any help would be appreciated!! (:

Here is her now, without leveling kit

I would get a nice all-terrain tire. I have nitto Terra Graps and absolutely love them.

I've got Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I think they look pretty aggressive but are pretty quiet on the roads.

x2 on the Terras but which gen are you running? the 1st or 2nd? Because I have the 1st and they don't sell them in size 18 wheels anymore in the 295 category. They do in the 2nd gen but I'm not paying an arm and a leg just to have the 2nd gen and in the size I want.

I'd go shopping at a couple of the larger tire shops, look at and price tires. As mentioned above the tire someone recommends may not even be available to you in the size you want. I would assume you'd also like a certain look as well and this is the best way to do it.

Tell the wifey you're going shopping, she'll want to go. Then take a picture of her face when you pull into the tire shop.

I dare say the BFG KO2's would most likely be a good choice.

Nice 👍🏽, I'll probably have to go to Pathfinder A/T when mine are done for. They carry it in the 295/70/R18 size

I'm not sure what tires I run next. Truck is about to touch 200k so who knows.
Thinking about the ridge grapps. These Terras are smooth, low noise and are capable.
