Is there any point getting 20" wheels instead of 18" wheels? A Canadian writer noted on his website that low aspect ratio tires have inherently stiffer sidewalls and would resist being waggled by the trailer.
I personally hate the giant wheels they're putting on trucks these days. I certainly wouldn't buy 20's for the reason you specify. 18's are fine. I'm old fashioned I guess, I'd prefer 17's. Much cheaper to buy tires, and a better selection of LT tires.
Again on the V6, I only test drove one example, and based on that one, I would spring for the V8. The V6 I drove sounded like a paint shaker under the hood and couldn't get out of it's own way power-wise. Having read other peoples opinions on it, I'm inclined to think that maybe I test drove a dud, and should give it another chance. But, either way, the V8 is a better match for the truck and towing purposes.
