My KOs are great. No drone and have an aggressive look.

Yes, I want to minimize the drone ... with two kids and a wife, they are already all loud .... (well maybe I do want that drone. LOL)

But seriously, for a 20 x 10 wheels on a 6 inch lift for an FX2, what tires do you guys recommend that will stick out a bit, give an aggressive stance, yet still provide as much silence as possible?

nitto trail grapplers aren't bad at all, slight whine but nothing annoying. my buddy has them in 35's on his 250 and even on the freeway they're barely noticeable. as long as you don't get nitto MUD grapplers... now those are loud.

I would say the terra grapplers on a wheel with 5.5 backspacing

you need to figure out if you want m/t or a/t if you go into some serious stuff and have the $ for replacing tires often go m/t i have bfg km2's they are very quiet for how aggressive they are i don't have any experience with a/t's personally m/t's look better on aftermarket rims than a/t's but they are cheaper and last long what I'm trying to say is what are you willing to give up? hope this helps

PS i have 20x10 XD's w/33''s they stick out about an 1.5 inches

Why not find something more original or different? Fuel Hostage wheels are a dime a dozen, especially here in Texas.
