Great point Todd on the difference between tires! I keep telling people the same thing when they need new tires, don't buy the $100 ea. tires it's not worth the risk.... Nice to see you guys know how to outfit your builds!

Cheap ain't good and good ain't cheap!

Goodyear, what a joke of a tire. The name is right though, Good for a year!

[@flyonawall6521]

I had a car with Toyos on it, tread wore out and I bought some Goodyears for it. Talk about night and day, and not in a good way. So I thought well, maybe it's because it's a sport tire and that's just the way they are. Bought a set of Goodyears for my wife's SUV, night and day again compared to the old set. Learned my lesson and haven't bought any Goodyears again.

Love the wheels!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

You can correct the tire size in Forscan so speedometer is accurate. No big deal.

@@asvpab 😂😂 copy bro thnks for the wisdom

[@asvpab]

@ChozenNYC just kidding, it's a program that you can download to your computer and it allows you to change settings on your Ford such as disable double honk, bambi mode, glare free headlights, etc. You'll also need an odb2 cable connected from the laptop to the truck.

[@eugenemuller923]

I see your point, but I slightly disagree. If the truck comes with steel wheels from the factory, it typically has a tire size of 265/70R17, which is indeed taller than the 245/70R17. In this context, switching to 285/45R22 wheels seems like a viable option that maintains compatibility.

[@toddbarrowman8857]

@eugenemuller923 the 265/70 is on the stock 4x4. The 245/70 is standard on the 2wd. This truck is a 2wd which is why we match the height of the factory 245/70 that came on it. Thanks

U should build a single cab coyote with oem 20x8.5 xlt rims, lowered, color matched but slap some big ass Larry Hoovers on there and see how that looks. Seen it done several time and it’s a slick looking sleeper EVERY-TIME.

[@The2StepBronco]

What rims are they and what size?

[@PRV392]

Gotta try the Falken S/TZ05 for some of these trucks. Great traction, ride smoother, balance great and is an original equipment brand from Ford.

[@toddbarrowman8857]

I haven't seen a Falken on any F150 from the factory. Plus, they are heavier and much lower speed rating that the Nitto 420V.

[@PRV392]

@@toddbarrowman8857 I see the dealership builds packages with different types of wheels so it’s always good to see different options in good quality tires and suspension too. I’ve seen Falken all terrains come factory on Bronco sports, mavericks and Edge I’m used to 285/45r22, 305/40r22, and 305/45r22 on these trucks which are usually the same weight and speed rating. I won’t argue in that size they are definitely higher rating and lower weight 👍

[@davidteller3805]

Own one of these trucks it's great other than recall I just got

[@toddbarrowman8857]

Hey Dave! Seems like about every manufacturer is having recalls these days! Frustrating for us all! Take care!

[@doaburnout1205]

What load raiting is used?

[@sebassramn7963]

What does it matter? You guys are going to jack up the price and put premium price on those tires? Does it matter what tires you get?

[@mikenorton8588]

👍

[@johnfletcher2124]

sounds like a typical car salesman trying to make you think his truck is much better because he uses a certain tire.

[@toddbarrowman8857]

Nice! Long time car guy first, quality over all else is important! The last thing I would want in my personal car would be 705hp and tires that can't handle it. Thanks for watching.

[@saulavila9941]

What’s the price on the Truck $$?
