Looking for Wheels and Tires

Looking for some help...I have an 04 Supercrew and I am looking to put a level kit on along with new wheels and tires. I am looking for a wider stance. I have 18s on my truck now. Any thoughts of a good wheel and tire combinations to achieve a wider stance? I do like the BF tires, but at a loss for the wheels. Any picture of options would be helpful. Thanks.

I'd suggest adding a 2 inch leveling kit and a set of 325/60-18 (33x13.00) tires on any 18x9 inch wheel with 5 or 5.5 inches of backspacing if you have a 4x4.

It depends on the look and ride you want. We all know there are several different styles you can pull off with the F150, monster truck, mudder, street, low-rider etc. I just added 20" wheels myself with 275/55/20 tires and am more than happy. That's just my set-up though, I live in South Florida and we have no such thing as even a hill much less a mountain and I have very little interest in "Muddin" so I went with the street look. Check out wheelsforless.com, they have a huge selection of wheels and some great prices IMO, I tried to buy from them but the wheels I wanted were backordered from the manufacturer so I went another route. Have fun looking and window shopping, this is the right spot to see what looks good.

Agreed, thats what this place is all about my friend.
Wandell, is it possible to achieve 33's with a 2wd (05) with just a 2 or 2.5 leveling kit? Or would a body lift be required.

you should be ok as long as you put the leveling kit in- if you want to go any bigger (35's) you will need some additional lift

Jwool15, several members have fit 285/70-17's (33x11.50) on 4x2's by using the OEM wheels and a leveling kit.
