Crappy low-light pic. But I finally got my TPMS installed on my 2015 Sport wheels and got them mounted on the truck.
I love the way they look. Sooooo much better looking than the plain ole XLT 17's I was running.
Thanks guys. I love the way they look. totally changed the look of the truck. Haven't driven enough to see how much of a hit they will make in mpg's but so far doesn't feel much different power wise and they look good enough that it won't matter anyway.
I did take the time to weigh them before I slapped them on.
they are stock 2015 Hankook ATM's and weigh in at 76# mounted and balanced.
by comparison the 2012 XLT 17's I just took off which had P265/70/17 MICHELIN LTX AT2's with a fair amount of tread came in at 65#.
On a side note, it's raining here today. I have to say I am impressed so far with the Hankook's. On my truck it has been difficult to find tires that grip decent in the rain. Just for $#!T$ and giggles I did a bit of a holeshot from the stop light in the rain and I was surprised to find them spin very little, then just hook and GO! of course they are brand new, so we'll see how that plays out as they wear. I drive very "spiritedly" so it wont take long before I start getting some wear on them.
For those interested in these wheels, Ford Racing has them listed in their catalog in both a Matte Black finish and a sparkle silver finish. So far I have not seen these wheels in either color from the factory on any trucks. Only in the dark gray finish I have. I'd love to see these wheels in black on a truck because I think they would look smokin. Especially on a gray or white truck.
