And the more and more I think about it the more and more I wish I had gotten 37's lucky for me though I've got a buddy that would by my wheel and tire combo, so I'm hoping to do that before the end of next month

honestly id save up and get a spare wheel and tire to match, I'm gonna end up doing that when I get new wheels

Money money money! But he'll yeah, I'm beyond ready to be a pic ***** and show off my truck

Nothing wrong with Bama's option, but if I was blowing an extra $700 on spare gear, I'd want it displayed in the bed. And that means I can't use my bed, so that doesn't work for me.

What I would do is get any cheap 17 or 18" wheel that'll fit with your lift (or even the stock spare and stick that on the back if you blow a front tire), then hit Craigslist or the offroad shops looking for a heavily used 35" tire to fit it. Personally, I'm not gonna bother with a spare at all cause I have AAA and the jack won't be able to lift my truck once it's up in the air. I never go offroad and shouldn't ever be somewhere that AAA can't get me and tow it.

I hit the trails a lot and I don't think AAA will make it to where I like to be. I have a procomp lift and from the looks of it I don't think my spare will work.

The spare, or any other OEM wheel, should fit in the rear. They don't work on the front because of the lift spindles, but they fit the rear. Only problem I see is that the spare is super thin, so something 9" wide would be better for mounting a 35 on. So blow a front tire, move a rear tire to the front, then slap the spare on the back.

Either way, unless I got a bed rack and wanted to play prerunner, I'd find a cheap wheel and a cheap, used spare 35". No sense in letting a new $400 tire dry rot. Maybe a cheap, steel bullet/revolver wheel that's $100 if you're forced to go new, and will have 4.5" BS to work with the lift. Then still any 35 that you can find for $40.

Sitting at the dealership looking at 2014 F150's makes me trigger happy.

Clean bill of health along with a new PCM/TCM update. Not to mention I let my service writer in on my intentions with my Tunning and lift. Services manager wants a ride after, he is considering lifting his 150. Good to have ties with the local dealership.

Last wash at stock height. Guess I will never be coming to my favorite car wash. Funny thing is they said they hand wash at 50 dollars. Nope I'll wash and enjoy it myself.
