hey just got a 03 f150 xlt

going to put on 24 inch rims and tires

want to know the pros and cons of doing this to my truck

jer

oo and im new here so thanks for any help

 

I was reading an article in the May 2004 issue of Motor Trend Magazine, and they pretty much sum it up from their point of view. I can't say for myself right now but over time I should be able to tell. I just put a set of 22's on my 04 S-crew lariat. Just put them on yesterday so I have not had time to post pics yet.

 

I am going to put 22 inch rims on my truck it is a 1999 ford f150 xlt 4x4 the rims that i am going to put on are called x-**** i have bought them about two weeks ago and the demand is so much for these rimes that i have to wait 6o days in tall i can get them the web site is called www.mhtwheels.com when at the web sit go to dub and at the bottom of the page is the x-**** they are cool

 

Pro's: Will look awesome. Gets more women.

Con's: say goodbye to; Gas mileage, braking distance, couple $$$$'s for Big Brake Kit if you want to stop the same, Naturally bad structure (anything over 22" has been said to cause excess wear on the rim/tire), Performance, Torque, HP will all be DRASTICALLY reduced at the wheels (the only place it really counts).

O and 24" rims basically mean that you will be getting a lower-profile tire...

Lower Profile = owned by harsh ride + possible blowouts and fairly frequent tire replacements

But hell...If I could get em I would
