The one you just pictured does in fact appear to be a solid polished aluminum wheel and not chrome clad. Only way to really tell in a pic is with the center cap removed like you just posted.

Here's one of my chrome clad wheels without the center cap. You can see how it doesn't cover everywhere behind the cap. That's the difference.

factory wheels of those are steel. Ford didnt chrome clad in the 10th Gen trucks.

Its one of these options
Steel (painted)
Steel (chrome dipped)
Alloy (painted/clear)
And special editions had Alloy (Chrome) (Lightning or Harley only)
