I'd gladly trade my lariat wheels for all silver/chrome stock ones.

Actually went that route with another member here...
I like the tan because it matches my two-tone....of course once the guy some my pics in my gallery from offroading he decided to get his own silver ones elsewhere.
They are in great shape but do have a small scratch or two...I'll probably get some off road tires and put on the rims when I go to the mountains each year.
If ya'll want to trade them it doesnt matter to me...I'd take some pics of them...like I said...they look great but arent perfect

Ford can't put color matched door handles on the Lariat but they insist on putting Arizona beige on the wheels........sometimes I wonder what the heck the Ford design people are thinking.
I agree. I didn't like the color. I changed my grill and wheels just because of the Arizona beige.
