Great Deal!! Wheels.

Alright, first off this is not for my own personal gain but for everyone on this site. I ended up finding this great contact for American Eagle Alloys and Pather Wheels. He is pretty much an over the phone contact but does have a few on ebay now.
Now for the part you all care about...he sells at a really great price.
I got my set of 17x9 Eagle Series 186 with caps, stems and lugs for $475 shipped!!
He has all the new Eagles in our bolt pattern so call him up and get a list of what he has to fit the truck then look them up. He is a really good guy out of Texas and great to do business with. His email is dave@davesmobileauto.com or call direct at (806)777-6655. He is on ebay but very limited (same with website).

I mentioned to him that there would be a lot of F-150 owners out there from this site very interested in his wheels and prices.
Let me know how you all make out.
If anyone has anyone wants any more info let me know. I just thought I would relay this to all you guys since wheels have been tough to come by besides Welds which are a lot more $$$. Enjoy!

Have any pictures of them installed on a truck? I am very tempted to buy a set but want to make sure they are exactly what I am looking for.

Thanks,
Matt

I bought the wheels and put them into storage. I didnt want to miss out on the deal and I knew this was the look I wanted. I am not putting them on the truck till I have then new tires and lift which could take till fall or maybe later.
Go to American Eagle Alloys website and look through the patterns, then call the guy up and tell him what you are looking for. Someone else has the eagle alloys series 186 on here with pics. They have a very aggressive offroad look and look great with big tires. Like I said the guy who sells these is good people and great deals. Hopefully once the lift is in I will post pics of the truck with all the mods. Cant wait for that day!

I've sent an email to him to see if he is still offering the same deal.

I will also need a small leveling lift and some larger tires. I want the stockers gone! Or I will store them just in case.

I am sure this truck will be with me for a while though. I really enjoy it a lot.

The 6x135 are our wheels and yes they do carry them. Call him for questions or see what Eagle Alloys website has for 6x135. The 186 does come in 6x135. Daves number is 806-777-6655 out of texas.

They also say 6x135 for 17" wheels. If you call Dave he will tell you the same. The 186s that I ordered are 6x135 17x9 with 5" of backspacing...perfect for our truck, and damn good looking.

Gear_slammer, sorry I forgot who it was that had them on their truck already. I remember seeing them a while back on a white FX4 lifted someone posted here, from that point it was the ONLY wheel for me.
