Raptorians,
Done with installing Methods 17", now thinking about 35" tires, pls let me know if you have any feed back on the following brands:
1. Mastercraft, Courser C/T
2. KUMHO KL71 ROAD DESSERT ALL TERRAIN
Attached are photos for each
Thanks
Thanks a lot for posting, they seem a bit wider than stock, they look very good.
i will post couple of 35" options that i can hardly find down here, to see what is the most preferred ones, pls give your inputs.
p.s very nice truck, clean and smooth :)

Can you share photos of your truck please? would like to see those 35" on stock fenders, are you positive you have no friction issues? even on full turns? what about offroading? i mean mild off roading with no jumps or crazy bumps involved.
Thanks
Thanks to all of you, ok this is how it went, I finally got the nut for the bolts, we fixed front wheel first, backspace is probably less than 5 mm, no friction whatsoever. I drove it around and I am not sure if I'm just imagining but certainly those wheels make the car more stable on the road...
Yes i have 2013, i didn't know i can shave the calipers, is it easy to do? who does it in the world of car shops? mechanics or chassis guys?
i am starting to regret getting my self into this!!! many things to learn at 47 years old is not fun!!!
i appreciate your help, thanks a lot guys
Method 17"!!!! HELP
I'm at the workshop now! Trying to fit 17"inches method wheels, they guy is not comfortable with how close it is to front brakes calipers!!! He thinks I need spacers!!! Any thoughts??? I have just removed the stock wheels and got my tires on those new methods 17" I didn't do...
Nop, I have been told many times that there is no way to put the 37" tires without changing front fenders to get more wheel clearance and more fender flare as well, or u will have lots of friction going on between the tires and the fender lining.
Raptorians,
Bought Methods 17" last night, went in full passion to fit them on my truck, down there i found (they found) that stock nuts will not fit in the new wheels!!!! the seller gave me today black of suitable size black nuts and i should fit them tomorrow.
1. the Nuts are not Method...
i thought i would share with you even before i wash it tomorrow :))
next i will put the Boatec fenders and 37" toyo that i also copied from an awsome car like yours, will get better pics with another phone that has no dust on its lens!!!
Thanks again for sharing ur pics, as you can see they...
So can I put the method wheels and toyo tires in the photo if I only use the BOATEC fenders without the need to adjust the perch from the setting I have on my stock 2013???
Hi Gurus,
1. What tires are those please?
2. Why do they protrude out the fender?
3. This fender is the BOATEC, did any of you have an issues with it?
4. Front suspension of 2013 Raptor still has the 3 positions of Perch?
5. Can those tires fit to stock wheels?
thanks in...
Hahahahah OK OK i learned my mistake, not a car, it is a mighty monster :) :) :)

Gurus,
What is the biggest size of Wheels & Tires i can put without having to lift the car?
i have a super crew 2013, brand new.
Also i would appreciate your thoughts on lifting, what are possible risks? i drive my kids to school daily, just before school we get into a desert area to skip a...
This is awesome!!!! i really like what you did :happy160:
i see you added a layer to the roof as well, can you share with me the material used?
did you need to remove the bumpers to cover the front parts?
it looks really good, better than what i had in mind.
Thanks for sharing
