Guess I'm just a curmudgeon. But I analyze things myself and don't mindlessly follow current trends. The subject of this thread is curb rash, to which wider rims are particularly susceptible. I concluded that the style factor isn't worth the cost, given the reasons stated above. I hunt archery elk each year, 22's don't belong on dirt roads at 10,000'. And no, I didn't ask tire diameter for the reason you stated. I asked because if they were different, Ford would have to calibrate the speedos based on which wheel/tire combination was supplied. It appears that some people look at wide rims and think they're cool, whereas I see them as silly. Kind of like some people think tanned skin is cool, I see sun damage, wrinkles and skin cancer. To each their own. Free country and all that. Oh, I actually ordered my XLT with leather because it's easier to clean. However, I was disappointed to see that it's perforated, because spills can soak in more.
