Default 2013 Wheels on 2007

Noob Alert!

I found some 2013 wheels and tires and was wondering if they would fit my 2007 4x2 Screw KR.

I need new tires and figured I'd try Craigslist

mine is 2007 Wagon Wheel KR with 265/60/18

new ones are = 2013 20's with 275/55/20

I'm also planning on 2.5" front leveling kit.

I don't know about clearance/ tire sensors, etc.

I'd like to get away from the grandpa look i'm currently sporting.

Any other suggestions would be appreciated.

They'll fit no problem. It might throw your speedometer/odometer off a little bit.
Don't know about the tire pressure sensors, a tire shop probably would though.

wheels and tires will fit perfect.. your going to need to swap the 07 band style TPMS sensors to the 13 wheels.. you will need to buy some new bands .. OEM bands need to be cut to remove.. a tire shop will do this for you.. the tires need to be removed anyway

Speedo will read 57 mph when doing 60 mph. if you have a programmer you could fix it. I just grabbed a set of '12 wheels for an '07. Techrep,,Any input on where to get new sensors? Thanks

you can use the old sensors and cradles from the 07 wheels...you just need new bands...bands can be bought at the tire shop or E-bay...E-bay would be cheaper if you can wait for them...

I bet it will look good, I wish I could get rid of the tpms on my 07 f150. I have had 3 different sets of wheels and zero bands!

You could always just put black electrical tape over the light like I did. You can't see it blinking, even at night.

I actually had the gauge cluster out of the truck right after I got it, the tiny bulb burned out where it shows the miles, temperature, and compass. All the little trouble lights are led lights so they can't be removed, I did not think of just covering it up, maybe that woulda worked. At least there is no warning chime to alert me that my tires are low (when they are not) I know the newer models chime and that would push me over the edge lol
