3rd gen Off-road rigs

[limitedex]

Hello Guys, I'm a newbie here to the Expo world. I picked up this 14 EL last summer and was not happy when the power running boards almost touched the grass when deployed. I chose a 1.5" (this is mainly the wife's daily family hauler) spacer lift front and back for now and went with 285-55 Toyo AT2's on the stock 20" wheels. I would like to upgrade to the Bilstein 5100 F-150 option I see some guys are talking about in the future.

I have 305/55/20 Toyo A/T2's on my F150, and really should have put them on my wife's Expedition. Your 285's look great too!

I went with Duratrac's in 275/60/20 and they're just too skinny for my taste. Great tire though if anyone is curious!

I'm considering those exact wheels in 20". What offset are yours?

I believe I bought the 18x10 20mm.

Here's ours with Toyo M/T 33/12.50/20.

Looks great. How do you like the 35's?

Love em so far. Nice ride, fills wheel well out just enough, and no rubbing or trimming

Looks good. I like the conservative, yet semi-agressive look.
Is this a 4wd?

Thank you very much, thats the look I was going for. Fit-in in the mall parking lot but still be capable of traversing unplowed snow covered roads out where we live. Oh yes it is 4wd.

On another note, can anyone explain how I get my verhicle info as a signiture in the faded grey at the bottom of my post? Thanks!

Won't be going Jeep crazy off road but just want to get off pavement every so often.

What wheels are those you have on your Expedition Tsingson? Ive seen those before on a expo and always throught they looked good.

Very nice truck... How's you level it? What size lifts did you use in front and back? Mine's similar but white with a black grille. Took off the running boards and now I fit under the thing.

Not sure who your asking but mine is a Readylift 3/2 spacer kit
