20" wheels on the farm

16" wheels will not fit over the brakes. It has 13" rotors front and rear. The factory spare is 17".

I like the 18's on my truck, it just seems right, but 17's would be good also. I got a size for my truck that didn't change the speedo reading, or at least not very much, but its not a big deal to take it in and get it programed. They also sell after market "chips" that allow you to make this change yourself, but they ain't cheap, but they can also boast performance.

I would personally buy a set of 17" factory take-off wheels in a style you prefer and run stock (or roughly stock) sized tires on it. The wheels won't cost too much, tires will be cheaper than 20's, and they'll be better able to handle rocks and holes without as much risk to the rim.

However, if it's just field roads with some ruts and rocks--nothing too extreme--you will probably be fine with slightly oversized SilentArmor tires on your 20's. That wouldn't be my first choice for farm use though.

20's are usually just for looks

you should be able to put 17" on there and clear the calipers.

I ordered a set of 18" take off wheels. Should have them with a set of tires on the truck by next weekend.

Thanks for your comments. I thought the truck had 18" wheels when I bought it, it was advertised as having 18s.
