35x12.50x20



20x10 TR46



Simple math:
35" tire - 20" rim leaves 15"/2 means you have a sidewall of 7.5, where the stock would have 9". How's the ride compare?

I'm running stock and mine gets a bit skiddish over road bumps even after I lowered the pressure to 38psi.

Ride is pretty much like stock. I noticed just a tiny bit more noise at higher speeds on the interstate but normal cruising I can't tell the difference at all. I'm running the 39 PSI. Had 41 on stock never did drop it down.

Wheels look nice. It would be cool if they made 17s or 18s.



I want to say HRE just released a statement that said they were doing the 161 in 18".

Too bad they don't make one that fits stock wheels. I don't want 20's.

You guys are in luck. #1. R1Concepts does offer a BBK to fit 17" wheels and up. The kit that fits 17's has 6 piston calipers up front and 4 piston calipers in the rear, 345mm one or two piece rotors, your choice of rotor hat and caliper color (about 32 different color combinations).

For those that don't want to wait, I can help you now to get your order started. For those that are skiddish about the kit, I have the 17" wheel kit on order for my 2014 Raptor as we speak, although it may be another 3 weeks or so before it arrives for installation and review.

price for 17 " wheels set up?

The retail price for the kit to fit 17" wheels is $4352 plus shipping.

How much do these run?

Here is a break down of the retail prices for the kits available.

19-20" wheels - 380mm(14.96") 8 Piston - $3150
20" and up wheels - 405mm(15.94") 8 Piston - $3269 (NOTE: The 405mm rotor size is a tight fit on 20's)

Rear:

17" wheels - 345mm(13.58") 4 Piston - $2169
18' wheels - 356mm(14.02") 4 Piston - $2237
