Nice wheels, I remember when i was wheel shopping and i saw these, I liked them but the only picture i could find of them was on a lifted jeep. I have the Dick Cepek Dc-2's...which i love, but sounds like others on this forum aren't too fond of them lol.

Turned out great. They rub due to the lowish backspacing. If they were around 6 with positive 30 offset they wouldn't rub, but then it also wouldn't have that aggressive wide stance. Have only seen those one other time on a new f150 on the other f150 forum. Looks awesome with the color of your truck.

Thank you to all that commented!!!!

I took it offroad today they seam to be a better & softer ride than the last tires I had on.

They do hum a little bit on pavement, but not enough that if you turn the music on you will not hear them.

Has for the mud no problem did not have to put into 4 wheel drive in a place that in past history I had to and almost got stuck do to wheel spin.

I got to say I love these tires and rims.

My next plans are to add lights and maybe a winch. Time will tell.

Thanks Again....

Well I went to a Ford Dealer today to get the speedo fixed. I told that it was going to be $69.95 to recalibrate it. They took about 45 minutes. They also told me that if I had not used a tire size that Ford put on an F150 they would not be able to fix it exactly. Thank god that they built the Raptor with the same powertrain and tire size.
Then I went to pay and they said it was going to be only $39.95 AWSOME!!!!

So now the Grand Total
$2104.84

Default Your Wheels

The truck looks great been looking at these wheels to and was just wondering if they would fit mine without rubbing. Ive got 275/70/17 tires with no leveling kit. Do they still rub or was that before the leveling kit? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
