Default Just Ordered

OK I just ordered these wheels:

XD 775 Rockstar Black; Size: 20x8.5 Bolt Pattern: 6x135
Offset: 35MM Back Spacing: 6.13"


Now I need to get tires:

I read alot of reviews and the Toyo Open Country M/T sound the best.

I also like the looks of these but not sure how they would handle on the road

Pro Comp Xtreme Mud Terrain, 35x12.50R20

Anyone have any suggestions. I will be getting my lift as soon as I order the tires for those wheels.

I would go with the Pro Comps but I'm with you on the road part. All I say is read reviews from people that have them and see what they think about them.

Are you looking for an A/T or more of a Mud A/T?

So after hours and hours of bashing my brain against the computer and making my wife mad because I could'nt make up my mind. I finally have ordered both tires and wheels.

Wheels: XD 775 Rockstar Black; Size: 20x8.5 Bolt Pattern: 6x135
Offset: 35MM Back Spacing: 6.13"


Tires: Open Country M/T, 35x12.50R20

After reading about 3 hours of reviews I decided to go with the Toyo. The Pro-comp although do look very badass I read that they wear down pretty fast and make alot of noise on the highway. However I am sure that most tires do. I wanted to be able to play in the mud off road here and there but my truck will see more pavement than off roading. Thanks everyone for you assistance in my many of posts trying to figure what to go with. I will post pics when I get them and when I get my lift.

Can't wait to see that truck when it's done, should look great! Those Rockstar's are getting alot of buzz and I'm seeing more and more F150's with them on. Still not as many as the Moto Metal 951's though, everyone and their brother has those.
