20" wheels....
Have an 07 w/ 20" wheels. Went to price tires and i about s*** myself!!!!!!
Has anyone taken off their 20" and gone back to an 18"?? Would like to put a more aggressive tire on the truck due to my work conditions but the tires for a 20" are thru the roof:ouch: Any suggestions would be appreciated!!! Thanks |
Sure why not? You can do 17", 18" or larger... 17" was the smallest stock size that came on the 05-07's. I have 17"s on mine right now and a set of 18" lariat wheels in the garage.
17" wheels have the cheapest tires. 18" are more and 20" are a lot more.:c: |
Thanks Mdub!!
Unbelievable what they want foe rubber now!!! Only getting worse w/ this crude going thru the roof but, i really think i might go that way.. Atleast run one set in winter and one in summer to prolong life |
Shop around for tires. 18 aint all that much better. Im looking at about $400 to $500 per tire with several brands. My last set I got last year in march was the Toyo ATs. Have the 50k mile warranty. So far I have put in 17k miles and Im down to 6/16 tread. So they dont really hold up to the milage. But they were about $300 each.

Best deal i have found on any rubber is Tire Rack in South Bend. Huge selection and by the time i get anything shipped to me it ends up around 30 cheeper than the locals but, i still need to mount and balance so, by the time i get done w/ all that it ends up around same price as locals

I'll keep my 20's, the look much better. Just pack your lunch for a few weeks and save some coin
|
Tires are expensive for these rigs no matter how you slice it. I just keep buying used tires on craigslist for a fraction of the cost haha.
|
there is a guy here in Ft Worth using 17.5s and G rated tires for low boy class 8 trailers. Don't know where he got the rims, but the tires should last longer, comprimise the ride and not sure about tread patterns.
|
Yeah I dont see 18" being much better, best bet would be to find a set of 17"ers.
|
Anyone know how big of a tire you can put on a stock truck with 20" wheels? Have on 275/65/20 right now but would like the larger tire look without having to jack everything up
