    Keep the 18" a lot of posts about tire sizes and 18's give a better ride and are cheaper.
    I have 20's on my TRD Sport and are going to go down to 18's .
    ***Can I see a picture of your bull bar?

    If I was not going to do an 8" lift I would go 18" or even 17". Only considering 20" because of the lift.

    20’s don’t equal a bad ride. When talking about wheels/tires the amount of rubber determines the ride. 18’s with 33’s is like 20’s with 35’s. Up to you

    Stock to stock you can tell a difference in ride quality.

    When you get to e rated tires that are taller its a lot harder to tell the difference.

    90% of the tire choices we have available in bigger sizes are e rated anyways.

    17s have the most choice of c and d rated tires

    I’ve had my tundra with 20” on 33 and ride was basically the same as with my 18” but just love how it looks with 18”

    Go with whatever you think will look best. If you are really going for a smoother ride you would’ve bought a Lexus, not a truck.

    Thanks. I was just wanting to see what is out there. I’m not concerned about the ride. I’m not going to lift it but I don’t want to eat up what clearance I have with the tire and fender.

    Keep 18s! These stock steelies aren’t very appealing on my truck but I like the tire girth. Would have went 17s if I could live without the rims I’m saving up for that are 18’s or 20’s only. 18” it is.

    BTW welcome and nice truck. I dig the Quicksand. And both sizes will look great on yours I’m sure.

    Looks good. What wheels are those and what are the specs? Width and offset. Also, is your suspension stock or leveled?

    I have 275/55R/20 Toyo open country tires with 20x9 Moto Metal wheels and stock suspension. I put 10,000 miles on them without any issues. They will be for sale soon lol. I am lifting my truck.
