So I got a new set of 35x 12.5 Goodyear mtr's in a trade....basically for $400. And have had them for about 3 months. Could not put them on my stock wheels because they would rub my a arms. I sold my factory rims and was able to get a new set of fuel kranks. They are 20x9 with +1 offset. After doing A LOT of research this is the size I wanted so I would not rub anywhere. My truck has a 3" level up front and boom here they are. No rubbing and looks amazing!!!!

Looks great. Just about the perfect amount sticking out.

Looks good man! Now you just need a set of flares!



I was actually thinking about that. I wonder how a set would look....I think color match not just black would look the best.

I think either black or color matched would look good. They'll also help protect your paint finish since those tires are sticking out just a little bit.

Ya the offset ended up being just what I wanted. And the best part is zero rubbing with 35's!

Very nice!
I had my heart set on a 6" lift but thinking this would be a more practical route.

It always blows my mind how much better a truck looks just by adding new rims and tires. Looks great bud!

I'm still thinking of going with a lift but prob only going to do a 4". Don't want to go any bigger.


So I finally got to drive it and these do make some noise. They give off the hum but still rides nice. Still has the factory feel to it. Don't feel any vibration from them and I'm thinking if I keep up with the rotation I should be good with that part. All in all I'm happy so far

Thanks, ya it changes the whole look I think. Also with the black wheels it makes the blue look darker.
