Thanks!! That looks so killer. Very nice looking truck you have! I'm guessing those are the 20x10 by the size of 'em.

I'll snap a pic or two at lunch today. Not much to see yet. Its a 4x2 and my plan is to put the 2.5" autospring up front, and a stock F150 4x4 block in the rear. Then bolt on the AR Mojave chromes with either a 285/65/18 or now that i've seen yours, a 285/55/20 BFG all-terrain. Its hard to imagine what it would look like with a 20" wheel and a 285/55, kind of a low-pro AT look that I'm not sure would be cool looking or not.

Man, if only someone would take the time to put together a site where you could put a large selection of wheels and tires on all makes of vehicles.....they would make a killing. I know tire rack has something similar, but there selection sucks. Maybe i'll quit my day job....yeah right!

You're right. Even TireRack's is kinda lame. The wheel size changes, but the tire always stays the same. Its great if you want to see what your F150 looks like with a 22" wheel and a tire sidewall of 25! Unfortunately, I was a computer tech for 9 years before I gave it up to be a Mercedes-Benz parts advisor...kinda like having the know-how but lacking the motivation to make my own program Anyway, I digress..

So i was thinking about it and a 36" tire is kind of an odd size. Most of what i see is 37" around here. I havent looked but is it spec'd as a 36" or is it a conversion from metric, like a 335/65/20 or something?

Cheers!

nope, they are 36"s, check out intercotires, the company that makes super swampers. They also have 33's, 35's, and 39.5's and up in 20"s, at least in an irok. The 35's come in 14.50 not 13.5.....so i'm not sure if they would fit on the AR Mojaves. The tires already stick out so i guess they would stick out further. Whatcha think?

14.5 is really wide. Heck for that matter so is 13.5. On a 10" wide wheel I'm sure it would work, though at some point it might look like the tire is ballooning on the wheel if you went much wider. The bigger concern would be rubbing on the truck itself. Your truck's stance looks really nice as is though with the 13.5. Its a nice balance of height and width, and the tire looks perfect on the Mojaves.
