How ever big you want. 16" all the way to 28"s or even 40" rims if you could find them. Just about how tall you want to get.

Well, I decided to go with the truck color after an hour of taping off two wheels. I tried both way, and decided to stay with the RB factory color with silver to match the trucks colors. I did do one wheel in Arizona Beige, but the Teal made the wheel stand out. Here is a picture of one wheel painted the Blue. You already know what the beige looks like. lol]

No. Just no.
That just does not look right IMO. Different, but not in a good way.

But if you like it that is the most important thing.

I actually really like them.. I think it's because you have an uncommon color to begin with.

I tried one in the Desert beige, but with the blue truck it really looked out of place. It looked strange, as nothing matched at all. Silver and blue top with silver and beige wheels. It didn't fit at all. The silver wheels looked decent, but were awfully bright. I figured it was either stay the silver on the whole wheel, or do the way I did it. i decided on the later. lol. I do like how the Expedition center caps fit to these wheels without any kind of obstruction. I personally like all original Ford parts and use them as much as possible. My radio is even out of a 2007 Escape, and has factory navigation. It is fun to mix and match oem parts to fit.

OK, I figured out what I don't like about them.
At first I thought it was just the color (still not crazy about it), but on the KR, just the "spokes" are painted, you did the spokes and the inside parts. Seems like too much painted stuff.

Ah. Yeah that may be it.
