So I'm looking for new rims and tires for my raptor. Would like to know what some of you have and your experiences with them

Do a search for "wheels" and you are bound to find plenty of threads with pics and discussions.

That being said, Methods appear to be the most popular wheel and there are an assortment of favorite tire choices, such as Toyo's, BFG's, GoodYears and Generals.

Our personal favorite combo are 17" Method Double Standard with Toyo Open Country M/Ts in either 37" or 35". Let us know if you have any questions. Check out our website Texas Motorworx - Design. Performance. Speed. Ford Raptor

Ok, after taking Yukon's advice, I have read a majority of the wheel and tire threads and have concluded that the Method DS with a machined lip is the wheel for me.

Now, as for the tires, I was leaning towards Duratrac's, per Greg's recommendation, until I remembered that we only get snow in Austin once every ten years. Given that my Raptor spends 70% of it's time cruising the highway, is there a huge difference between the way the Toyo ATII's and the Toyo M/T's perform on the payment?

We have the DS with Machined lip in stock and ready to ship (while supplies last).

The Toyo AT II are smoother and quieter than the MTs. However, I dont think that there is a big enough difference that I would leave the MTs for the AT IIs. The Duratrac's are always a good way to go...we sell all the above so let us know if you want a quote.
