Sold my BMF's and bought some used factory 20's from a member on here. I think it turned out GREAT! The tires are 295/60/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers. They measure out to about 34" tall on the wheels and fill the wheel wells up nicely.

Looks good Jeff, those are definitely the best wheels Ford has ever put on these trucks. Although I have to ask, what happened to the rear bumper...looks like you had a big girl sittin back there! :D

Came out very clean! You don't rub up front in turns?

I got rear ended a few weeks ago. I got everything in hand to replace the bumper Saturday. The bumper and tailgate are being replaced. Everything will be paint matched instead of gray. Having the front bumper painted as well. Can't wait. :D

Nope. The the tires aren't much bigger than stock. Slightly wider and taller. You can run 35/12.50's without rubbing. I don't recommend running a tire that wide on 8" wide factory wheels though. Nitto makes a few sizes that work awesome with factory wheels.

Nice! That'll look sharp, getting hit sucks, but at least you are making the best of it. I was going to do the same thing, I had a set of FX4 painted bumpers and grille lined up...all three pieces for $200...then the guy bi*ched out on me. Oh well, keep lookin I guess...

Why did you ditch the BMFs?

They were pitted really bad and out of warranty. Not to mention they are beginning to pop up like crazy in my area. I was the only one with them for about a year. That has changed. I see other trucks on a regular basis that have the exact same wheels.
