Trucks ride on tires, not wheels. Before getting too excited about 20 inch wheels, you should compare the diameter of a mounted 900-16 tire to the diameter of the 20" tire mounted on a Ford AA wheel. What is the increase in diameter, or rolling radius, of a mounted 20" tire versus the stock 900-16 tire? How much rolling circumference benefit is gained by using 20" Ford AA wheels? I don't think it is that much, but the relevant facts may show otherwise.
