[QUOTE="squeak, post: 740917, member: 2976"] O.K. I'm starting to obsess over new wheels and tires, eventhough I have less then 30,000 miles on my 2010 5.4L Oxford White Raptor. The majority of the off road driving I do is beach driving in the summer and snow driving in the winter. After reading this thread, I'm thinking I'd be better off opting for a lighter weight tire and wheel combo to equalize or slightly decrease rotational mass. I like the look, price, and reviews on the General Grabber AT2 (with the white lettering) LT315/70R17 (67lb) and the Fuel Anza Matte Gun Metal Wheels 17x8.5" (25lb). Currently, If I'm correct, the stock set-up is 95.5lb per wheel/tire. This new set up would be 93lb per wheel/tire. <br /> <br /> General Grabber AT2-[URL="http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=General&tireModel=Grabber+AT+2&partnum=17R7GRAT2OWL&vehicleSearch=true&fromCompare1=yes&autoMake=Ford&autoYear=2010&autoModel=F150%20SVT%20Raptor&autoModClar=5.4L"]http://http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=General&tireModel=Grabber+AT+2&partnum=17R7GRAT2OWL&vehicleSearch=true&fromCompare1=yes&autoMake=Ford&autoYear=2010&autoModel=F150%20SVT%20Raptor&autoModClar=5.4L[/URL]<br /> Fuel Anza Matte Gun Metal Wheels:[url=http://fueloffroad.com/wheel.cfm?id=4047]Anza - D558 - Fuel Off-Road Wheels[/url]<br /> <br /> I guess I have a few questions for those of you in the know:<br /> 1.
