Well... I really do love my stock wheels, but I if I keep them, I'll have to spend about 500 more on tires, just b/c its a 20" rim... 4wheelparts has the tires I want MT ATZ 35x1250R20's for like $350 a pop. I can probly borrow some money from my brother to get tires, but will more than likely just keep the stock tires on there for the time being if I keep the stock wheels. Correct me if Im wrong, but would I get better gas mileage w/ a smaller rim? I took my wheel off one day and it nearly killed me.... I helped my buddy the other day take his Excursion's wheel off and I could pick up w/ one hand and he had 33X1250R16's on the stock rims... so wouldnt a smaller (lighter) rim give me better mileage? Im just curious. Oh, and help me settle a bet w/ my brother does ANYBODY know what a gondola is? WITHOUT LOOKING IT UP!! lol

Oh right, didnt pay attention to the width, they would probably rub on the control arm being that wide. My 35x12.5 Pro comps are about 1/4-1/2" away from the control arm. Thats the cheapest ATZ I could find in a 20" rim. You might be able to find someone that will trade you your 20's for smaller 18's or 17's. Tires are usually cheaper in those smaller sizes.

I was originally going to run my 35x12.5's on the OEM 18x7.5's and the tire shop said it wouldn't be a problem. Plenty of people do it and w/out issue
I believe the OEM 20's are 8" wide. If not then they are 8.5's but I am 90% sure they are 8's.
Hit the classifieds and I am sure you will find someone willing to trade you their 18's or 17's for your 20'S. You might even be able to get some cash out of it too.
My 35x12.5x18 MTZ's ran me something like $1200 total....just to give you an idea of what you're getting into

yeah, I dunno... I might just try and sell my OEM 20's and use that to buy some Mickey Thompson rims. I can go w/ a 17" rim, just no lower b/c of the brake caliper and other parts, right? Im in a dilemma between keeping my stock rims and tires for the time being, or selling/trading for OEM 18's or MT 17's and buying 35X1250's.
