i have them on my 06 supercrew lariat, and i don't have complaints yet. I've had them for about two months and put about 600 Km on them so i haven't really gotten a feel for them but they look good

they are the 305/55/20 size so roughly 33x12.50

Hey, thanks. Just a 2 1/2" leveling kit and tires. Be advised, I did have to do a little trimming to keep the 35's from rubbing when I turn, but it was no big deal. Here's where I had to trim:

Thanks for the pic - wasn't expecting that! My '05 Lariat is a 2wd so I'm thinking of a 2.5 leveling kit with 33's. She's paid for in October!

a lift kit and you would avoid that cutting!!! cheaper than those tires too

Be honest Mako, I would bet money you still rub if you hit any decent sized bumps with the wheels turned.

Well actually, the bumps don't seem to make too much of a difference, but it does still rub a little when I cut the wheels all the way to the left or right, but not where I trimmed. The wheel that is leaning in when I turn rubs the upper A-arm at the ball joint, but not by much. As long as I only turn the wheel about 95% of the way it's fine.

I would add, that if you plan on putting these tires on (or any 35" at/mt for that matter) and plan on doing much "offroad" driving, I would highly reccomend a lift kit. I don't go offroad much in my truck, thats why I have a grizzly 700. I just need enough grip on my tires to haul my 4wheeler down some pretty muddy roads getting to my hunting camps.
