These here are a pretty nice "on a budget" wheel. Never seen them on another f150 either.

Here is my Screw with **** Cepek DC-1 wheels and general grabber AT2s. I had the wheels powdercoated ultra chrome w/clear. I ran them for a couple years as bare polished AL and man was that a job keeping them shinny. Now wash, dry, done.
Another option for you is buy a used set of polished rims, scuff them with a scotch bright, etch prime them and use rattle can wheel paint. Worked great for me and looked good too. I ran these for two years also and they were low maintenance. Best of all if something happened to them all you had to do was touch them up.

twlightning...how you like them AT2's? I was deciding between them an the tires i got an obviously went with the hankook mts lol...I like hankooks cause they are a mt with a good lookin tread pattern, but they aint too aggressive like other mts out there...an they were about 200 a tire, the at2 was a little cheaper i think

I like them so far. I really don't have enough miles on them to give them a full review (about 200 at most). They ride really nice and are not very loud at cruising speed. They don't seem to hook as well as my old mickey AT's on dry payment. Its pretty easy to make them sing out of the dig. I bought them b/c I read a lot of great things about them online and they are a lot like the BFG AT's. Plus they were $180 each for a 50K tire. IMO you can't beat their value. I look forward to busting some drifts and seeing how well they do. Hope that helps. Good luck with your rim search!!!
