20" Wheels on Gen 2 Raptors vs Stock 17"s?

[GCATX]

Uhh, a little more ground clearance with 20s???

The 20's go to 11. The 17's only go to 10.

Detail the undercarriage?? What does that mean?

Ask @Oldfart - he'll tell ya.

Okay, awaiting flow charts, diagrams and disclaimers.

I've had Venomrex 20's on my truck since I bought it, and do a fair amount of off-roading with no issues. The Venomrex wheels are only 28 lbs and they look great! In mint condition because they are always handwashed/dried, ceramic coated, and I don't get stupid when I'm on the rocks. Very careful.......HOWEVER, my new 17" wheels arrive tomorrow. The new 17" Black Rhinos will be heavier @ 35 lbs, but I'm offsetting that by going with Yoko MT G003 tires in 35x12.5R17, instead of heavier Nitto Ridge Grapplers(loved them though).

When I was shopping for my truck, I drove a Raptor with 17's, and I must say the suspension on the Raptor masks alot of road imperfections. Even on 20's, my Raptor has a ride that is at least 2x more comfortable on-road than my wife's 2016 Yukon Denali with the Magneride suspension, and 10x more comfortable than hers off-road! I have no complaints about having 20's, but listen to the MANY VOICES of reason on here, and stay with 17's. Just buy some different 17" wheels to make your ride unique and your own style.....

I always thought detailing the undercarriage meant shaving your balls.

Bottom line, chicks dig the extra inches, but it's not going to be as comfortable a ride. Ultimately, it comes down to how you drive it.

For the guys running 20" Wheels on there Gen 2 Raptor, how is the ride quality versus the Stock 17" set up? Which do you like better?

Do you off road with the 20" Wheels?

Thanks

bro...don't do it. I would hate to see you around town and be laughing at you behind my tinted windows call you a noob, before rolling down the windows and saying hello, nice raptor. It would just be awkward for me.

I'm not going to any car shows. No way in hell I am washing the underside of a truck, let alone "detailing" it.

That's what I always tell my *******! "I know it's not very big, but it will be more comfortable for you!"
