What a difference in how the truck looks with truck tires! (In a great way!)
The Hankooks were replaced with Toyos today on my stock rims. Got the LT version and amazing that the tire pressure is 50psi. The tech said that my efficiency should be just as good as stock or maybe even better.

I had an odd wear pattern on the Hankooks - they said it looked like an underinflated wear pattern (normally set to 40-42psi), but was wearing evenly with balanced tread depth on all 4 tires. The edges were rounding.

I’ll be tracking my efficiency and will share my results in various weather and trips.

Everything else stock? ...any mods? lift, etc?
Everything else is stock. OEM tire size: 275/60 R20 - but this is the LT tire

i was considering going down to an 18 inch rim to get a beefier tire (or even a 19) and keeping the overall diameter the same but that changes it from a little expensive to hella expensive real quick!

There was more expense going to 18" rims to put on 70 series LT BFG tires, but I'm very happy with the beefier tire. About the same diameter, and rides better. Ford should offer the 18" option on XLT and other higher grade Lightning models.

Those look great! I’m considering the 116 rated Toyo’s.

Looks great ! Lt tire is probably going to decrease your range a little - however will improve your handling and are tough when it comes to nails ect bouncing off vs soft rubber attracting them IMO. I think I averaged about 10% decrease when I switched to an OEM size LT tire. For instance. A lariat 320 range I think I was really getting around 300 around town - 260 ish on highway

when I eventually put a 2” level and went up one size in LT tire - ok 2 sizes I was averaging around 260 vs 320 around town- 225 on highway. I rarely travel more then 200 miles a day so I like the. Ready set up.

as more and more brands start coming out with EV specific off-road tires I’m excited to see if there is truly a nice difference vs non EV tires
