Default So the 5.0 is gone. lifted and tuned the 3.5 eb

So i havent posted in a while since i traded in my 2014 5.0. Now i have a 2015 f150 ruby red Ecoboost 3.5. So this week i spent siome money first i did the Livewire TS+ tuner with the high boost MPT tunes and holy ****. if your looking for a tune, thats the one for you. Makes it a completely different truck. I have not seen gains like that on a tuner since i had my 6.4 diesel dyno tuned. Pushing around max of 22lbs of boost and of course the VTA mod. I did alot of research on the intake system and ended up sticking with the stock box with a K&N drop in. couldn't justify $650+ for 5hp difference when the stock box is actually a very nice design. I played around for abit like that then my wheels and lift arrived. I did a 6" BDS with 4" blocks in the rear (to be level with little to no rake) and added a set of 22x10 XD820 wheels -24 offset with 35x12.5 Toyo open country MT tires and some Custom Offset spike black lugs and i absolutely love the stance and look of the setup. Heres an update of what she looks like now. Thanks for checking it out.

Nice setup. the spike lug nuts give the wheels a unique look too. Since this question is bound to come up I have to ask. How bad did you rub?

It rubbed the corner of the front air dampner so just cut them, then there's little (crash bar) like braces that come out on the ends of the front bumper I guess to stop the bumper from crushing into the tire in case of accident they are about 1.5' long I just removed them and no rub now

do the 15'-16' trucks still have a 6x135 bolt pattern? I tried looking for those exact wheels for my 2012 but couldn't find our bolt pattern listed on the website. Great looking truck btw.

Thank you, and yes the lug patterns are the same. I went through custom offset for the wheels, they were the only ones I could find with the -24 offset with the black and machine face
