Hello, I have a 97 Ford Expedition with roughly 30k original miles. My mother was the original purchaser and its always been garage kept and very rarely driven. She actually put a layer of carpeting down over all of the original carpet to prevent any dirt or stains. She has now moved to a different town and left the expedition with me! 
I've got a 3 inch body life from Performance Accessories and then 3" front suspenstion and 2" rear suspension lift from Suspreme Suspensions. I picked these up locally from someone who never installed them on their expedition. I have a mechanic who will be installing either the suspension lift, the body lift, or both depending on the fitment/look.
Living on an island in Alaska we are very limited with what we can acquire locally as most things have to be ordered online. Luckily this day in age Amazon has almost everything that I need!
Would someone be willing to look at the wheels and tires linked below and let me know if they will work together and fit an expedition with at least a 3 inch lift?
The expedition is light blue in color, which I just don't think would look all that great with black wheels. There aren't many choices for silver or satin wheels on amazon, but this is what i'm looking at.
Color Reference:
DIP D10 Silver Wheel with Machined Lip (17x7.5"/10x135mm)
