stick with the 20's, people get 17 and 18s so they can get a cheaper tire. i hate seeing a big 1 ton liftedtruck with big ol tires and some god dang 17s on em.

So, a real opinion would state that it all depends on what you are looking for in a tire. Do you want deep mud capability? What about asthetics (sp?), do you, as I prefer more sidewall or a low profile mud tire (which is exactly what you get with 20's). In other words, not everyone looks at cost, some of us look at what we are planning to use the truck for and looks.

Ummm.... actually cost never crossed my mind when buying 17's. Thanks for letting everyone, including me, know what they are thinking when buying.

Now you guys have me wondering about the MT's, maybe I should look at the AT's. I don't do very much HARDCORE offroading, just ALOT of hunting and fishing. Anybody running the Toyo AT's?

why cause for someone who doesn't have a pavement queen it is a smarter choice to go with 17's. Tires are cheaper, and they have more sidewall for better flex and traction. 20"s with a mud terrain do look good, and they do that well because that is what they are for...looks.
