Need help finding the best tire for my 2021 f150 Lariat. I am looking for an aggressive look with a great ride, quiet ride, and does well in the rain. I have decided to put 2.5 leveling kit and fuel rebel rims on the truck but know nothing about tires.

I'm running Continental TerrainContact A/T tires on my truck in a 275/60R20 size, they have tons of grip in wet weather and they provide a very smooth and quiet ride.

They don't have the most aggressive appearance, but they are easily my favorite tires after running the following competitors: Bridgestone Dueller H/L Alenza, Nitto Terra Grappler G2, Falken Wild Peak A/T3W, Hankook Dynapro AT2, and Toyo Open Country A/TIII

I am very happy with my General Grabber ATX's, same as what's on the Tremor. Very stable in the rain, reasonably quiet.

Aren't you glad you asked the question Mike, you have 5 responses with 5 different recommendations? Do yourself a favor and stop by Discount Tire and tell them what you want, they will be glad to discuss and if tire is in stock they will bring one out for you to look at.

Look at some Milestar tires, like the Patagonia A/T Pro.

Nobody likes BFG All Terrain's anymore? Had them for years on my old CJ-7 and swore by them. Was just planning on that as my go-to when stock is worn out...

Did you paint tow hooks or is that a cover or something. If not painted have a link to what you got. I need a little color on my hooks.

If you want a comfortable ride you want to stay away from LTs. Get the biggest C side load rated tire that looks good by a major manufacturer and you’ll be doing great.

KO2s are still good. But they haven’t improved forever so the competition has caught up. They are coming out with KO3s but they are only available in limited sizes right now

I have thought about painting them but I have been lazy. But these are covers I got from https://hookproductsusa.com/

To be honest, I am not a fan of them. They are bulky and up close don't really look flush/clean on the hooks themselves. I'd rather paint them or put in new painted ones. My brother got the orange covers and neither of us were fans!
