Thinking ahead to snow tire season. Will 18 inch rims fit on the ST, standard wheels, 20inch from the factory.

Yes. But make sure wheel bore is correct. You can't use 18" rims from the previous gen unless they are aftermarket and you can swap hubcentric rings.

Yup! The police interceptors run 18s but those wheels and center caps are ugly and overpriced. Have over 10K on 265/60R18 Wrangler Duratrac , great ride quality for as aggressive as they are . Best truck tire of any I sell . They do not compare to the 21" Pirellis once you get over 80mph. 18" American Eagle rimes were under 200 / pc. Having some slight glitches with 2 of the 4 Autel TPMS

What setup is everyone going with for winter rims/tires?
I'm looking to buy but not sure what size yet.
Might go down to 20" because the cost is insane.

Following for replies as well.

I'd like to go down to 18" with some aggressive winter tires, hopefully without them getting too loud on dry pavement though.
