04 6.0 Wheel and Tire sugg

046.ohBills · Nov 28, 2015

Hey all,

So I know there's probably a million topics/forums on this but I was wondering on a few wheel and tire suggestions for 6.0h with a leveling kit. Looking for 18" rims and what backspacing/offset I can use. Also looking for a 35" tire or bigger if possible.

Thanks for posting if you have the time.:grouphug:

Thanks for your service! Do you have leaf spring front or coil springs?

046.ohBills · Nov 28, 2015

Leaf springs, and honestly don't know if its the traditional in me I just like leaf springs better.

Op here's 33s and 18s

A nice Fuel wheel in an 18 would look great on your truck.

Idk what you truck looks like, so idk if you want chrome or black or wat....but here's my truck....18s with 35s.....they are XD Hoss and have a -12 offset....

My truck is the dark grey and i was wanting black rims and do you have any rubbing at full lock either way? good looking truck dude love the light bar in the grille great idea

My inner fender did rub a little, but I just pulled it back and now they only rub if I'm turned hard and hit an incline.......so I'm happy....didn't have to cut anything

right on, that doesnt bother me either, i just dont want to have to cut anything want to keep that mostly stock look. do you happen to know your rim width and the dimensions on your tire?

Koda22 · Nov 30, 2015

Rims are 18x9 and tires are 305/70/18 which from my understanding that comes to like a 35x12.50r18.....

if you're going 18's, it's tough to beat the factory '04 18" alloys. one of the best looking wheels Ford ever made IMO.

snik · Nov 30, 2015

I do not know the width of these alloys, but the tires are 35x12.5x18s
They ride great. Love em. But I will be Going down in size when they wear out. Sumbitches are expensive, and make loading my bike a task, being so high.
