Default Opinions?

So, I have a Question/Opinion related thing here...and yes...its wheel related.

I'm set on the Rancho Quick lift level kit (but getting the rears as well) So the front will come up 2.5 to level it off.

Now, I am going to get new wheels and tires, and for awhile I was set on 33 or 35 AT's, but since this will RARELY if any be OR, I'm thinking maybe some 20's with a MILD AT/Road tire.

I dont wanna COMPLETELY kill my MPGs, but still have the look I'm after.

Also, will I need to get the speedo calibrated?

Here are the wheel/Tire packages I'm considering as far as AT go

1st: This one is a 35" on a 18" wheel

2nd:

3rd:

If I went 20's what tire would you all recommend that looks Semi-AT aggressive, and looks good with the rancho quick lift?

Thanks for all the help/answers and any pics are welcome!

The only wheel I would even consider is the 3rd one.

Thats my favorite as well. If I go "non AT" I'd snag some black FX4 wheels and tires. They look semi aggressive and I think the 20" would look good.

But, if I go AT, the 3rd is my favorite as well...still not sure as far as the speedo, and etc.

Pretty good prices, too.

1st is out for this guy. I hate those rims. The tires are pretty good. My buddy put them on his f150. Mildly aggressive. 2nd tires would be a no go but rims are OK. 3rd rims and tires are very nice. Personally I would do the third set wheels and tires in 18s.

I'll have to see if they have 18's.

Couldn't agree more... people apparently would rather buy ****ty looking wheels that everyone else has already anyways rather than classy looking ones that a lot of people have already anyways. LOL
