Ebay Knockoffs FX4 wheels

I have been in the market for a set of FX4 wheels. I was wondering if anyone has ever tried the Ebay Knockoffs? Also, if I do end up going with the knockoffs any idea where I could pick up some center caps?

Thank you,
Alan

I bought an eBay FX-4 style rim a few years ago. The machine work was nice and so was the clearcoat finish. I have since plastidipped my wheels, but when I recently washed them prior to spraying, the finish was still about perfect, even on the inside of the rim, except for some scuffing from road debris.

The eBay knockoffs come with black generic center caps, so I just used the Ford ones that came with my truck. If you need to replace yours, then I think the part number is: YL3Z-1130-AC

But you should double check that number. There's like, 13 different caps.

I am of course assuming this is kinda what your truck looks like since you didn't mention your details in the original post.

Thank you. I have a black super crew. I think I may just bite the bullet on the knockoffs. Do you happen to remember which vendor you went through?

I tried to look up my eBay purchase history, but it seems to stop at 2013. I bought the wheel a little earlier than that. You may want to contact this seller and ask if they will cut you a deal on a set of 4. I haven't been able to find any other FX-4 wheels on eBay as of late.
