Default Cheapest set of wheels and tires

What's the cheapest set of aftermarket wheels and tires you've seen that are appealing and how much?

That is a difficult one to answer because there are so many variables and options, and what YOU consider appealing.

Consider these three attributes:
- Cheapest (lowest cost)
- Quality
- Aesthetics (appealing)

Pick any two, and sacrifice the third.

Instead of buying "cheap", look for used that is of higher quality and still in good shape.

Lots of variables here.
20" wheels and tires cost a lot more than 17"

I'd be looking for 17" wheels to save on cost.

Keep checking Craigslist and any local F150 groups on Facebook. Plenty of decent used aftermarket and stock wheels.

This is what I would do. I'd keep an eye out for some nice looking takeoffs that I could pick up. Then, you meet all your criteria.

Well spacers can do the offset for cheaper, and depending on how cheap you are and what you're looking for you could...

Powder coat the stocks
Plasti dip
Get steelies
Wheel adapters for different lug patterns
Get hub caps from Wal-Mart, they even have spinners

Personally I want to get spacers and power coat my stocks, but I might plasti dip first just for ****s and giggles.. if that helps?
