Ha I wondered if anybody would notice the wheels. I had the dealer swap the 22's that came with my vehicle for 20's off a Limited they had on the lot when I took delivery. Mostly for more tire choices but I also just prefer to have more sidewall. I happen to like the look of these wheels better than the 22s as well.

Do they feel different with the smaller wheels on.

Hard to say since I only ever drove Expys with 22s on various test drives. I want to say that potholes etc arent as harsh but that could be placebo.

I have another thread called "Jittery ride with CCD" or something like that. It's possible that the CCD suspension is tuned to only work with 22" wheels but that doesn't make sense. More sidewall, lower tire pressure, and less unsprung weight shouldn't produce body vibrations where none existed before.

I still want to go test drive another Expy with 22s at some point just to see if I notice a difference.

As far as I know nobody else who has posted on this forum has both 20" wheels and CCD suspension.

I thought they were the Ltd wheels. But I also thought you might have swapped for the 22s off a Ltd F150 or something.

That’s me. The ride is fine. It’s only slightly more plush due to the HUGE sidewalls.

I’m actively looking for 20s. I can’t stand the ugliness any more. Haha

I went with these for the reverse bulb. 2000 lumens. I have them on the Raptor, and they make a nice bright area for backing up. Clearly see the difference on the reverse camera.

How easy (hard) is it to pull the housing?

@Yukon Joe
Do these work on the 2018 Expedition. When I plug 2018 Ford Expedition in to the "See if it fits your vehicle" test, it says they are not compatible with the Expedition. Want to brighten my reverse lights.
