Thanks man. I've been piecing the kit together for almost a year. Ended up saving $400 over the Stage3 kit price. It's all brand new never been installed too. I'm pretty stoked.

Ran out of time to get the suspension installed, but I got the wheels and tires all on the truck. Holy ****, the ride is back to stock. I went with p-rated Nitto Terra Grappler G2 285/70/17 tires. So happy I made this change.






I replaced the plastidipped stock XLT 18" wheels with e-rated BFG AT KO2's that were 285/65/18 in size.

Is there anyone Running Raptor Rims 35x12.5x17 on a 4" Lift. I know there are quite a few with Levels but Anyone with a Lift.

Rough Country recommends 18" with a Lift because of the Larger Knuckle.

Even with 34.3 Nitto's I REALLY hate Low Profile Tires. I kept the Harley Rims because I want to keep the Truck as close to a Stock look while Modding it Up. I want more Rubber.

I think that the Raptor Rims will still give her that OEM look I'm wanting to keep yet get rid of the Low Profile tire which I hate.

I'm thinking that Raptor Rims 35"x12.5"x17" with my 2" spacers on a 4" Rough Country Lift should work.

Anyone around Knoxville TN have some for a test fit I'll Buy first round!

I looked into this as well, as just did a RC 6 inch lift on my 12 and was going to mount some 35 / 12.5 / 17 Nitto tires on some factory take off Raptor rims but I called RC before ordering the tires and they confirmed the 17 inch rim will NOT fit with either their 4 or 6 inch lift because of the knuckles.

Once Stateside I'll have to track some down and see if the Raptor rims will work with wheel spacers. I have 2" spacers because I like the wider stance. That plus I just purchased New Fender Flares. The whole package works out great in my Head.

There was an f150 on here with a 6" rancho running raptor wheels with a 1.5" spacer. Can't remember user name though

Not sure where the ideal look falls in your head. I know you said you don't want the 22's. If you look on eBay, there are some Raptor replica wheels that are offered in 20" size. Might just give you the look want AND the size you need.
