What size wheels and tires are you all using? I'll need new tires before winter and I'm also seeing that takeoffs are the same price, I'd like to go to 18" from 20" for more sidewall.

He says he wants to go to 18” from 20, so he is correct, it will give him more sidewall.going from 18" rims to 20" rims would give you less sidewall.
Down to 17" rims will work on the Expeditions, clearing the calipers and all that. I'm running 17" Raptor take-offs with 35" tires without issue.What size wheels and tires are you all using?

Thanks, I'll keep an eye out for those. I'm not looking for anything too aggressive unfortunately, I really like my Defenders and how quiet they are compared to some other treads.Down to 17" rims will work on the Expeditions, clearing the calipers and all that.

Did you have to cut the rear axles for those wheels?I forget what year F150 these came off. I like them a lot.
Yes. Pretty sure any and all F150 wheels on an Expedition need a slight trim.Did you have to cut the rear axles for those wheels?
Yup, took a grinder and whacked about 1/4" off the axle, not even down to the threads. Just enough to get the center cap on.Did you have to cut the rear axles for those wheels?
They ride great! No issues with ride quality. I actually really like this tire as it's much quieter than my 18s were.How is the ride quality? I have the same Expedition and have the option of getting these same new takeoffs. I like how they look
