Apparently the only mods allowed by this forum to make it “your own” Is method wheels, BD lights, and some floor mats. Anything else is a shameful insult to the ford engineering gods. Heaven forbid someone void a warranty as seen here an angry mob will come after you.

I don't think it's "no mods allowed" around here. It's just certain types of mods that might make truck less capable than stock that don't sit well with the off road enthusiasts. Imagine if someone had a Porsche GT3, GT350R, Camaro Z28 etc... and put 24" spinners with all season tires on it? May not sit well with the enthusiasts and the owner might get some criticism. That's my take at least. But again, their money, their mods.

Hey! I'm in Bartlesville, you find anywhere local to take your truck and stretch the suspension? I hear the K-Trail is fun, but our trucks are too wide and we'll destroy the paint.
There’s some private off-road land that backs up to The Golf Club of Oklahoma. It’s pretty tight in a lot of areas when I first took my Tundra there. Raptor definitely won’t work on those trails but there’s some open areas to have some fun for sure. Unfortunately nothing with any speed. I think there’s also an area around the Arkansas River heading towards Bixby.

Here in Texas you have 72 hours to cancel the deal
Nope, nope and nope. 3 day cancellation of a contract in Texas applies to transactions that take place outside of a normal business's known address. Mostly applies to door to door or in home sales. You buy a car in a dealership, it's yours.

I get what your saying but come on 20's on this truck is no where near 24s on a camaro. the amount of sidewall rubber with 20s and 35s is near identical to stock sidewall on 17s.

and id debate that the majority of the "off road enthusiast" providing their opinion on here are not using their vehicle to the point that 17s vs 20s would make any bit of difference. But also want to mention im not referring to just this thread. the community recently seemed to do over @pj_singh1994 for the 20s he put on his rather tastefull build.

lests start a list of "un-allowed" mods lol
-20s
-a tune
-oil cans
-any lights other than BD, Rigid
- ...etc

hahah

Wheel size is not the problem IMO. I used wheels for reference because the worst thing you can do to a track oriented car is put heavy wheels on with slippery tires.

Drop bracket lift, cut subframe for diff drop, bolt on subframe extension, coilover extenders, larger rear blocks (if stock wasn't too big already), rear shock extensions and most likely weaker than stock "lifted kunckles". That's what most people criticize.

20's aren't the best off road but its not like they don't work...
