Thanks! I checked his out and it looks sick! Kind of got me worried that I had the 7 lug pattern but after doing more research tonight I found out that the only XLs with the 7 lugs are the heavy duty packages with the 5.4 engines. Definitely not mine

*Update*
It turns out I won't be getting tires this summer. I wanted to get them, but I wouldn't feel comfortable with the amount of money I will have saved by the end of summer. Once tax season comes around, I will end up getting new tires.

I have been looking into wheels a little bit and these have been my favorite so far. They look great for a decent price. I would really like to see a picture of them on your truck.

I am putting some up tonight! I have been lazy and putting it off to get the rims on. Got it yesterday morning right when the shop opened.

Finally got wheels put on after putting off the $100 fee. Bit the bullet and had them put on before work yesterday!

Im planning on in the future. After the wheel swap, for some reason the slant looks less somehow. But I still had the old steel rims in the bed. Most likely next summer I will be getting them. I bust my *ss every summer working to make money and I don't get too much hours in school due to the ton of people that work there.

Hey, I like those wheels. I was looking at some similar for my truck. Looks like they have some black inlay? I like it; I don't care for all black wheels but I do like black accents/inlays.

Great looking wheels! Huge improvement from the stock steel ones.
