Wasn't sure how they'd look, but I'm VERY happy. Outside of some damage from shipping (still working that out with the freight company), I think these look amazing on the truck. Now if I can get some new sensors, and bring the truck into the tire shop for install, and get the "tire pressure system fault" notification off the dash, I'll be in business.

Ebay is crawling with them... Generally they are NTO (new take off), with 2-3K on them, before they ripped them off to lift the truck, and put bigger wheels. They are on (at least) 2012 Ford F150 FX4, I believe with the Appearance Package? I needed tires also, so I found some that had tires with them.. Sometimes the cost isn't much different, all depends on the seller maybe?

Good Luck!

may i suggest HIDs in the fogs


I'd love to! Hoping to do the sickhids conversion you did and fogs, just don't want to be "that guy" who blinds oncoming drivers with lights that were not made to house hids...

Sounds like a good deal! These were 1400 shipped, 3k miles on them, tpms intact (not the ones I need, though). Due to minor damage in transit from the seller's negligence in packaging, he sent me another 125 back... 1275 all said and done for Pirelli scorpions and fx4 rims? Very happy!

ZombirSoldier: I like them better on a King Bauer Expy. ;)

To be honest, I haven't put many miles on them yet... Being that I Have a 60mi round trip commute daily, I replaced my old rusty grand prix with an accord coupe... I drive the truck when it's bad weather, and to tow, but at ~11 mpg (with The superchips programmer on econ mode), i Haven't driven them enough to have a true comparison.

Here is a picture showing how it is vs the wheel well. Please don't mind the filth of the truck/wheels in the second one- temps are in the teens here, cannot wash the truck as often as I'd like. :sad72:
