[cba2m5]

This forum has been a major help in getting my rig to where it is now, so thank you everyone for the inspiration and knowledge gained!

2021 F-150 XLT White
Leveled with Roush by Fox 2.0 Suspension Kit from TCcustoms
Wheels are Fuel Block 17x9
Tires are Toyo Open Country AT III 285/75R17

This has been a great setup and after about 10k miles zero issues. Averaging about 18.5MPG with the 3.5 Turbo.

Looks sweet! What’s the offset on your wheels? Are they E or C load range toyo’s?

Thank you! They’re +01mm and the tires are load range E.

Do you feel that the truck is “laggy”? Did you happen to weigh your stock wheel/tire setup? Do you know what your new set up weights?

I never weighed the difference but the new set up is definitely heavier. It’s been so long since I was on stock that I can’t remember how it accelerated before. I’m sure there is a bit more lag but I certainly don’t notice it or desire much more.

Is the ride good with the toyos? What psi do you run? Should I wait for load range c to come in stock or run the load range e?

The ride is great, I have them set at around 48-50 PSI. Load range is up to your needs, I feel these are plenty soft for ride comfort for a truck.

Unless you tow 5,000+lb trailers often and need the sidewall thickness/protection, personally I think LR C (6 ply) tires are more than adequate. Our trucks come from the factory with P-rated (passenger) 4-ply tires, mostly for cost and fuel economy ratings.

I've had LR E tires on my past 2 F-150s, but like you would like to preserve as much power and pep as possible with my new truck and will probably opt for C or D rated tires next and consider weight before purchase. I noticed a difference in my new truck the day I swapped to new tires (in sig below). MPG and acceleration takes a big hit from any additional rotational mass and tire circumference. I run 45 psi max in my LR E tires unless I'm fully loaded FWIW

Sweet build, @cba2m5!
