Right now I have the stock beadlocks just pained black. I'll still off-road like i have been (light) with the new wheels and tires. Once i get more advanced with the truck off-road then i can always swap to the beadlocks couldn't I? I mean, do you think there will still be plenty of tire with the fuel wheels for light off-road? Plus the wheels are warrantied for 5 years as well...full replace if beyond repair, not saying im gonna do monster runs with the fuels but just saying, its there.

So you are keeping the beadlocks and tires? If so, yeah get the 20's for the street and switch out to the 17's when you want to go off-road. Consider your spare, if you are keeping stock under the bed then carry a set of stock lugnuts with you.

Correct. Stock beadlocks I'm keeping. Then when I get into doing more aggressive offroading, I'll swap. Cuz really man, this is Ohio...flat as hell everywhere and mainly farms, theres not anything that those 20" fuels won't handle.

Good idea. What would be even sweeter since it sounds like you might be keeping those for off-road is get the beadlock rings. Then you can you can really set it up. And sell those beauty rings to offset the cost.

Welcome. Maybe you can find your way to Michigan some time and hit the Silver Lake sand dunes, that is always entertaining.
