I think 20s will be noticeably harsher than 18s. Hitting a pothole in 20s will be much worse than hitting a pothole in 18s.



People are posting that gas mileage is noticeably worse with 35s. I don't know exactly but maybe 2 or 3 mpg worse?



Need a lift for that.
Thanks for all the info. I’m new at this. Lol.
Appreciate the time you and everyone on the forum take to answer some of my inexperienced questions.

Get what you like and what fits your needs! I need something with four doors, that fits four people, and is capable in bad weather conditions and works at a construction site. I'm not going to rock crawl or go off-roading.

I'll be getting 20's on 35 inch tires for mine. :like:
I've been running 20x35's and I off road all the time and I got made fun of by these idiot Jeep clowns who think they know everything. I've built a ton of cars and trucks so I need to told about airing down tires and all that crap. Dude I've never been stuck when out with the know it all's and now they don't say shit.

I would go with a BFG KO2 in 20". I have run thousands of off road race and rally miles on them and have been very impressed. In addition, I run them on my TJ and they are quiet and have good grip in the snow and ice. The one thing the KO2"s don't do well in my opinion is mud. Just my 2 cents

I just went from 20's in my F-150 down to 18" KO2's. The ride is considerably nicer...

You can fit 35's as long as you never need to drive over anything.
