Default New Wheels !

Just got these the other day,
came off a ‘20 Expedition Fx4.

I’m sure someone else on here has these same wheels but, I haven’t found a picture yet.
( scoured the Expedition wheel swap thread before I bought but, didn’t see any )

Overall I’m very happy with these,
the only thing I don’t like is that the original 17” silver alloys were a great contrast with the blue jeans paint, really made it pop.
I knew I would lose that nice contrast but,
never really liked the original wheels all that much and I love how these look.

Thinking of adding a red and silver pinstripe to the side to give it a little something.

By the way, I know the truck is dirty as heck,
3 straight days of rain before I took these pictures.

Thanks guys,
I like them, reminds me of the wheels on the 68 Mustang GT in the '' Bullitt '' movie.

They look good. Reminds me of the 5 spoke Cragar mags from the 70's
You could always have those wheels powder coated for the look you like.

Thank you.
Yep, reminds me of the old Crager wheels too.
Even though I knew I would miss the way the silver wheels made the blue '' pop '',
I actually really like these wheels just as they are.
Just thinking about what I can do to tastefully add back some contrast, like maybe a red pinstripe.......

I love 1980's cars so, a pinstripe is never far from my mind

A pinstripe might work well if you remove that bed sticker. Just my opinion, but do what makes YOU happy.
