Best Wheel Size for 37” Tires (on 35” Truck)

20’s would be a great balance and would have the same sidewall ratio as 18’s with 35’s. If you don’t off-road the truck much 22’s would look nice.

22’s on a Raptor??? I don’t think so!!!

I think the 37” factory option is worth every penny. You are opening a can of worms when upgrading to 37“ tires on the 35” version of the new Raptor. Ford chassis engineers spent a lot of time to get the 37” factory suspension geometry spot on. Suspension issues that arise down the road due to a non-factory 37” wheel/tire upgrade may not be covered under the factory warranty.

i could be wrong but the way i read it is there is no difference in the shocks other than they are tuned differently to account for the extra weight. similar to the difference between the gt350 and the gt350r

Time will tell, once these trucks get into people’s hands and they get examined in detail. Will the Raptor with 35’s come with the same exact suspension minus differently valved shocks and a wider frame out back for the spare? Will the modules get cracked so you can go in and change tire sizes? Will Ford instantly void warranty’s for people who convert 35 trucks? With the Gen 2 you could fly under the radar in many cases as 37” tires wasn’t all the hoopla it is now with an officially optioned truck from Ford. It was only case of some people just doing it.

To each their own. Many people never off-road their Raptors including me. I’ve got dirt bikes and a SXS that do a much better job at off-roading.
