Default Need help with wheels for new FX4.

Hello All: Ordered a 2011 F150 FX4. Did not upgrade the tires on the order
as I will be trading them in at my local Tire shop for Goodyear Silent Armour.
The size of the tire coming with the truck is P275/65Rx18. The truck will be white and not a lot of chrome so was thinking of trading in the wheels also for a black wheel. Your thoughts and any suggestions on type of rims. I live in Canada and we get a fair bit of snow...these tires and rims will be on the truck
all year. I do a fair bit of back road driving as well as highway. Comments well received.....tks.

Go back and upgrade to the 18" LT tires and your truck will come with these. I had 67,000 km on my last truck with lots of tread left when my lease ended and I drive off road lots. It will be significantly cheaper than going through a tire shop.

2Alpha, thanks for the photo! I have the upgraded LT's on my order and haven't been able to see exactly what they will look like!

Have any more pics of the tires/wheels?

Thanks!

Default thanks

Hey Thanks 2Alpha:

The white FX4 is pretty close to what my new truck will look like...only mine
will have a 6.5ft box to haul a slide in camper.
The tires look ok...still think I would like to have some partially black wheels.
Not quite sure....would be nice if someone had some pics of a white f150 with some black wheels that they could post here.......again thanks, I will get my sales mgr. to upgrade my tires to the G.Y. Silent Armour.

The truck is silver, I took the picture at the worst time of day for lighting and it washes out in the picture.
