Replace the stock BFG with Falken MT due to BFG worn out at 24k. I wanted an MT for the most traction off-road, and got the tires for $200 each. Recently replaced my stock wheels with KMC 17x8.5 0mm offset because the stock wheels will not fit the billet UCA from SVC that I ordered.

Do the 2019 OEM beadlock wheels have pockets in the back if you run spacers or are they flush and require cutting? Understand the debate on spacers themselves and not looking to start a debate there, just trying to save some work with removing a wheel to check :)

I'm rocking 35" KM3'S on 18" Fuel Vector Wheels (18x9 +01 offset) and I love this setup. In order to fit them without rub, I went with the ICON Collars at the tallest setting, 2.25" level. Hope this helps!

Hello everyone,

I’m kind of new to the forum. Bought my 2019 raptor last August and recently put new Venomrex 602s on my truck in a 17”. I currently have the stock KO2’s but wanted to see what other setups other people have and why they chose the setup they did. also, how you’re liking it or if you switched tires.

post pics of your setup!

A few more photos without the lens warp. Love the stance and performance. Handling is great. Off road performance is excellent and not too noisy either!

Jesus what kind of garage is that on your house haha.

the tires look good. Have you noticed how negatively it has impacted your MPG’s compared to the stock? With the Yokohama’s I ended up going with in 35x12.5R17 it has decreased only by about .5 mpg’s.

Haha! RV garage. - Mileage maybe .5 mpg difference. . . Not much of a difference at all though with the KM3'S vs stock.
