I did go one size up when it came time for new tires but it honestly was just for a fuller look. The wheels ere sized by the inside where the tire bead seats.
I usually pound them with a closed fist to shake loose what I can, then vacuum. For holes still blocked, round wood toothpick followed by another round of vacuum.
90% of platforms I am involved with, accross 7 OEMs, have pushed out product cycle timelines in the past few years. This isn't just a Ford thing. Overall sales have been down and there was a lot of political uncertainty over government mandates, tariffs and regulations. Of course they've all...
I'd do just the tires. That size 20 has over 7" of sidewall, which is more than the 15's had on my '92 and any truck I've owned between it and my current 2022 with 275/65/20's .

Just ditched the stock Hankooks after 40k miles. They were awful in snow. Wentworth 275/65/20 Recons (SL). Based on reviews I expect nothing but good and it sure transforms the look of the truck.
No level, rear blocks removed, no clearance issues.
He isn't now and never was either of those things. I've been in the auto industry for nearly 40 years, including experience suppling Tesla.
Nobody I know believed the original timeline when the truck was announced and none of them doubted it would eventually be launched. It is a...
It will definately cost Ford less in the long run...unless of course they screw it up. Rest assured it is not driven by a desire to reduce sticker prices, which is fine with me. I already have my truck and own their stock.
