the only difference in these years trucks are the fx4 have skid plate, rims an shocks, besides that it's no difference between them. if you want fx4 rims I know where you could get some for about $120 a piece

$120 a piece? Seems a little steep. I picked up 4 FX4 rims with 4 tires (8/32's and 5/32's) for $375 over the weekend.

I'm not really a fan of any stock wheels that come on these, even the fx4s. I'm just going to stick with the wheels I have until the truck is payed off and I can buy some nice ones. I'm just happy they arnt the stupid swirly ones my white truck came with.

these are brand new from the shop not used. when I had to order another rim I couldn't find another one or under $350 new or a used one that somebody would sell just one. then I finally found it for $117 plus shipping. if they were used yes I could see them being expensive but like I said they are new. that's a good find for $375

They are horrible. They hold so much mud and make your truck wobble and bump soon as you hit 50 if you even drove through a puddle!

My lariat has skid plates so I assume they may have come stock on the lariat. You will have to see if it has rancho shocks to see if its an fx4.
