So, looking through this thread I found that the Raptor wheels are about 31.5 pounds. Anyone know the weight of the stock 18" XLT wheels?

Thanks! I had the wheels laying around for about a year, just waiting for my tires to wear down so I had an excuse to buy a new set!

Are any people running these wheels with a 4" or 6" lift kit?

Irishred Is the only one I've seen with lift. I've thought about it but not pulled trigger yet

I'd bet it would look pretty good with a 4", anything more, may be too much, IMO. Just do it man, just do it!!!

I agree, but the lift kits say that they don't work with 17" wheels. I'm wondering if it can be done, specifically with the Raptor wheels.

Rancho with wheel spacers will work with 17s

There is a lift out there that states they work with 17" wheels (not sure of the backspacing requirements). I want to say it's "Super lifts".

Otherwise, you'll likely have to run spacers
