Yeah, going with the 35s though, that's going to cost gas money over time. There are some 34s out there too.

I have the FX4 package if that has any bearing. 2" level in the front only beyond that. Center of wheel to edge of fender: Front - 23 5/8" Rear - 24 5/8"

They make a slight hum that I didn't hear with the stock tires on some super smooth new pavement. Other than that they blended into the background with the wheels. Doesn't feel much different than stock to my foot except for on acceleration. Feels slightly peppier to my butt dying but that might...

Wonder if Ford could look that up by your VIN?

Mine weighed in at 38.5. Quick google search shows 38 and 41 lb variations. What does the paint code look like? From Google: "AI Overview The Ford F-150 wheel rim with part number ML341007GA weighs approximately 39 to 43.45 pounds (17.7 to 19.7 kg). This weight refers to the 20x8.5 inch...

Sure: 20" wheel(pic below) = 41 lbs Tire (Dynapro AT2 275/60/20 115T) = 42 lbs

Oh that's good to know - thanks! 100% It's the knowing part we need to understand. Good judgement can be learned from bad experiences which came from bad judgement.

I definitely have to drive conservatively to get good gas mileage. This truck is fun to put the foot down and it's so comfortable but I know it costs me. So if I have the time, I take it easy best I can. Going to the gym and back is roughly 3.2 miles and sometimes if the stars align I get 2 mi...

19ish around town and 25 to 26 freeway if I'm not speeding on a good day.. My foot is a little lighter versus when I was younger. 🙂 These tires do break loose a little easier. I'm curious if that's because there's more weight towards the center with a smaller wheel.

83 lbs

Thanks! I did a lot of tire and wheel weight/dimension research to get this setup with a tire that fit the bill. The new setup has a slightly higher load rating(76lbs) than stock ( 2679 vs 2756 ) but slower top speed rating(118 mph stock vs 112 mph). No issue there... I know what I'm driving. :)...

Thanks for the question. I don't have the max tow package(updated my post with this info). With my setup, things are not tight in there(brake components to wheel) nor do I have a ton of space. That the info you were asking about?

I wanted to eventually replace my 20" wheels on my truck but needed to wear through them vs throw money out. I have a 2" level on the front and standard brake setup(no max tow package). Got this setup on my 2021 Hybrid. Only adds 2lbs per corner(not turning more weight) and the tire dimensions...

Correct, it was the bottom edge of that back window. They had to order a whole new gasket to remove the window and reinstall it and seal it properly

My current 2010 PB H7 battery is at 63% SOC. I am looking to replace with the Walmart H7 battery... https://www.walmart.com/ip/EverStart-Platinum-AGM-Automotive-Battery-Group-Size-H7-LN4-94R-12-Volt-850-CCA-140-RC/40685088 Any reason to hang on to my original battery for use with projects or...
