Mazzi Hulk 20x10 wheels with Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ 325/50R20. The tires rock on the street...which is where 99.9% of my driving is done. Comments are welcome, even if they are negative...I can take it.
Hay FreekyFX4 can you post a profile pic when you get a chance? I save the other pics for future referance when I get back from Korea and i would love to see how she looks for the side.
Has the extra weight effected your stopping distance much?
Good job and Keep On Truckin'

Can you get a solid White F-150, i have never saw one that didn't have a different color along the bottom. I wrote down what rims and tires you have because they are what i want on mine if i get one,i'll give your FX4 a Triple !!!!!
They might be hard to find in the states because theirs a million of them here in Iraq.

Thanks everyone!

I really appreciate the kind words. I was afraid that people would tell me that they stuck out too far. I have gotten more compliments on the truck in the past 16 hours than in the previous year and half. I had to take the truck to NTB this morning to have the tires balanced, since http://www.onlinetires.com apparently does not balance the tires that they mount on wheels. Several people wanted to know what the setup was, where I got it, and how much it cost. Here's a picture from the side:

I don't notice any difference in the braking. The tires are only about an inch bigger than stock in diameter. I don't know how much the stock wheel and tire weigh, but this setup weighs about 90 lbs per corner.

Well you answered a question I was wondering as well about the diameter. 1" over the stock 18s? I can deal with that that and wont have to fart with a speedo recal. Thanks and nice side shot thanks Im sold dude. They sell the Hulks on ebay out of Mooresville,NC(my neck of the woods,sweet). Price seems good as well. "Kick the tires and light the fires"

Looks outstanding.

Can I talk you into taking a pic looking straight down the side so we can see how far the tires stick out beyond the fender?
