MT's vs AT's, 17's, 18's vs 20's discussion

[FishFreak]

@Nex got high centered in the starbucks parking lot on 20's or so the story goes, but thats a Gen Too anyways

I just got rid of s set of Atturo trail blade m/t in favor of KO2's in the 37x13.5x20 variety.

I've got to ask you too Murder, would you ever run a 35"x12.50r20? What benefits and drawbacks have come from running 20's and how long have you run them?

There's someone running 20's!! Bozz would you ever run a 35"x12.50r20? What benefits and drawbacks have come from running 20's and how long have you run them?

The 20's and 37's came on my Raptor when I bought it. I was EXACTLY how I wanted it, so I never changed. The truck had the original 17" wheels in the bed. They are in my garage. I can never see me putting them on.

No issues with the 20's and 37's. In fact, for the first 3 years that I had the truck the Cooper STT Pro's that came on the truck NEVER needed air. Ever. They held at 41lbs since the day I got the truck.

Both tires have been EXCELLENT for off-road, and......surprisingly quiet on-road. You would think as knobby as they are that they would be really loud, but they are not.

I have 25x12.5x20 on my 06 F150. Also K02's. They ride great, look great and perform great for what I need.


35's would not fill in the fender enough on the Rap, or I'd probably have 35 on it. I like the ride of the 37's on the Rap though


Drawbacks.....scrubs like hell and I would rip the fender off if I jumped it, but I dont intend to, so there's that. Looks good, really wide(r)

Always had 20's on the Rap, bought it with them. The 06 had 18's on it stock and I have always run 35's with a leveling kit. I hated tje previous 35's, they were mud king or some sheet....horrible ride after they wore, loud and finally wouldn't balance, so I went with the KO2. I considered Nittos too and the difference was like 20 bucks. I've ran both with good results. KO2's won. No real reson, other than I said..."those"

They are the original oem Gen 1 Raptor wheels. I think they are these in the image. They are buried out in my garage, so it would be difficult to go look.

17's on 37x13.50 with Alcon brakes behind them. Can't imagine a better setup for a Raptor.
