Let's See Those Lifted / Big Tire Gen 4s!!

[Mack207]

Not sure if you’d be interested, I did see rough country had a 1” level for CCD. Not the half inch you’re looking for, perhaps looking for an f150 .5” level (I’ve owned many f150s, I’m sure there’s one for them that may fit ours)

I went with a F150 1/2” level and it worked fine. The 2/1 RC option is more intriguing, but the front-to-back height was only off 1/2”, and I hate the front higher look. The 1” and 2/1 are definitely new.

I read elsewhere that not all F150 wheels will fit? Something with the dust cap.. and the axle may need to be trimmed…?

Currently looking into F150 take-off either 18” or maybe even 17” wheels. Anything to look out for when staying somewhere stock 275/65R18 or 275/70R17 ish.

I like those Tremor Y wheels, or the base Raptor ones optically.

Not looking into doing any lifting etc.

TIA

Yes, the F150 wheels will not fit the back axle. Need to trim it back about a quarter inch to get the dust caps on. I did mine with a sawzall.



Since you like the Tremor wheels with no lift...

Correct. Rear center cap doesn’t fit with the axel length. I’m running without the cap until I have a chance to trim the axel down. Should be able to see it in my pics. There’s another thread on here about Raptor wheels and tires that shows it too.

Darn. Thought it would be a plug and olay exercise. Love that rig above tho!!

Assume the black base XLT / F150 Sport are identical and F150 take-offs do actually fit the Expedition without getting brutal? Funny I keep seeing them at a pretty “sportive” going $ rate here in NC.

Any intel about those?

AFIK, ANY F150 wheel will require trimming of the rear axles. Just do it, it's easy and opens your options quite a bit. Lots of good cheap options for the F150 wheels, but the Tremors aren't usually one of them. However, they went so well with the gray on my expedition I paid up and got them. Selling the stock 22's sure helped the pinch on the wallet though. Funny enough, they are running on an F150 now.

Finally made the swap on the family hauler. We made a trek from Indiana to Big Sky Montana for a snowboard trip last month and I was not happy with the snow performance of the factory 22s and Hankooks so decided to ditch them..

Off with the factory wheels and onto new and more exciting.. 18x9 Granite alloy GR504s and Falken Wildpeak AT3/W 275 65 18's. I loved their winter performance on our Gladiator so I figured why not give them a shot. They were awesome through an iced over North Dakota and a minor blizzard on the way. Great in the mountains and fantastic on the long highway stretches. They are much quieter than I though they'd be and ride a bit better IMO. And I like the look so much better.. Just need to decide what to do with the stock 22's now. LOL
