I agree Dunes but nowadays I see at least 400 cars a day with "wheels" and that's the main reason that I want mine to remain stock. I don't want to be like all the others with customization. If you knew me than you know that that's odd to hear me say because the 2 previous cars that I've owned were customized from bumper to bumper. I've found out the hard way that everything I did to a vehicle was a waste so now I'm putting money towards other things. I'm not saying in any way at all that I don't like to see customized trucks/cars but I'm just not into it too much anymore.

When I get my house in a few years and have my older model Z06 I'll be customizing the heck out of it but for right now I'm paying off the truck and saving for a house.

I've owned a few houses and sold a few houses and owned many cars and trucks and sold many cars and trucks.....having a hosue is nice...making payments on a house sucks....lol...but I would have to agree getting a house is a good priority...I just hate driving a stock vehicle....

I used to know how you feel about not liking to drive a stock vehicle but I'm so happy with the F150 that I don't want to do anything more to it. I love the way it looks and the features it has. Exhaust is a MUST for anything with a v8 in it!!!

i dont really know which ones i like the best to be honest. i guess the gino or ion. i like the old mustang wheel look. is the first wheel you posted the ford ones, is that black trim in it? i'm only asking cause my grandpas black fx2 has those in 18" but they have gray trim to match the headlights and grille and i think if he got those it would look alot better.

my favorite was the gino... i saw a ford dealership here ordering the hell out of gino 509 and putting them on new trucks.... so i still like the wheel but there are a few floating around already... so then i saw the ion and i really liked it.... I like them due to the kind of nostalgic, sporty look they have. reminds me of the 70's. Remember the keystone klassics!!! that was a very nice wheel in its day...
