Agreed, these and the 08 Harley rims are my favorite OEM Ford 22" rims.

I had them when I first got my 09 FX4... Liked the look but you will more than likely have issues with chrome peeling inside the tires and causing low tire pressure. Make sure to get wide tires on them, like 305s, to protect from curb rash too. I ended up selling them after a couple years and went with the 08 Harley style with custom black 'Limited' caps. Only problem with these is the lug nuts are specific to this wheel and cap and cost a small fortune for a set.

If you look closer at those wheel you will see the chrome is just a cover over the wheel. Ford as been doing this for years, they don't chrome the wheel just put a cover over the Aluminum wheel.

Thanks for the input. They have 285s right now, once they are toast I'll look into wider ones. Those 08 you have look great on your truck.
