Hello all, bought one of these beast (used w/ 11K miles) over the weekend afterreading here. [/align] [/align] Ipulled up in anF-150 andinflicted my financial prowess on the sales rep 'till he capitulated. I left my wife there to finalize things and told her to pick up an extra key...later that evening she told me how much the key was (US $ 400) I pictured the sales staff pouring the bubbly while reminiscing on the "idiot with the ford".[/align] Anyhow, It is a beautiful vehicle and eventually I'll become desensitized to the maintenance cost. I did get a 75K mile warranty w/ it after reading here how these cars go in and out of rehab more than Brittany Spears.[/align] [/align] Couple of quick questions if you'd be so kind,[/align] [/align] It came with these rather large rims and low profile tires, what is a good off-road/ on-road tire size? It's gotmassive calibers on the front so I think I'm stuck with a minimum rim size. I need more rubber/ less rim for off-road use.[/align] [/align] Anyone know how to tap into the air compressor for a tire chuck?[/align] [/align] As I was filling it up, I noticed a sticker in the fuel access door that recommended premium fuel. Anyone use regular with an octane boost in lieu of super?[/align] [/align] Thanks in advance[/align] [/align] Rovescooter [/align] (Named vehicle after disgraced VP aids Karl Rove and Scooter Libby) [/align]

31.73 diameter 12.36 width for the tires- 22in rims with the big brakes- bigger than stock supercharged.

Hope this helps,
