I spent hours looking searching all the F150 forums debating 35's vs. 33's with a 2.5 leveling kit and went conservative with the 33's and I am glad I did. They are 12.5" wide and I am confident the 35's would rub a little bit, but I did not want to trim my $35K truck. If the tires were less width, then I think they would fit without rubbing, but the 12.5 will rub in my opinion when the wheel is turned hard.

I purchased off ebay from Rimzone and I debated the XD Monster's and the XD Hoss, but I like the spoke pattern of the monsters even though it is not as unique anymore.

I skipped the TPMS charge since they were charging $79 per wheel installed even though they listed $62.50 per wheel. It took a few miles for the light to come on and what a PIA that is, but I will change them on the next set of tires.

There was one center cap that was damaged and I am waiting from Rimzone to replace - I will let everyone know how they handle this.

Overall I am pleased and total was $1974 including shipping and they arrived very fast!

Almost done with mods, and now need the HD tails and a bedrug and may call it done done!

Looks great!

what rim size & backspacing are those?

 

Rim is 18x9
33x12.50-18 Toyo Open Country MT tires 10ply (Load E)
6x135 lug pattern
+18mm offset
5.71" backspacing

 

I went to the dealership today to get an alignment and they turned me away and said they could not do the alignment because of the aftermarket wheels. I was disappointed. Should I look for a body shop or tire shop? I can't believe no one with these rims gets an alignment.

Thanks for anyone's help

 

A tire shop will get it lined up. Dealers are worthless.

 

Why you say that? Does it beep all the time or something?

 

After each start up the message center will post the message in the picture and the warning light will blink for several seconds.

The message center keeps the warning on all the time which really sucks.

 

takes your truck to a whole new level! Enjoy!

 

you might have made the best decision in your life.. second to getting a ford lol jk looks good

 

Dealer wont do alignments on most of these wheels bc of our tools if there is no lip in the wheel to grab on to there is no way we can do it
