Seems like that always happens to me on ebay. I wonder why.
Good luck with them.

$355 is still a good deal.
I paid $250 for a set of 18" FX4 wheels w/good BFG tires,BUT.... it cost me another $250 for shipping.Mine would have been a killer deal if they were within driving distance but $500 was still a pretty good deal.

That still seems like a great price to me. Hell, tires are probably $200 a piece. I plan to sell my Lariat wheels for more than $355. lol

Start browsing on Craigslist around some of the closest major cities around you. I was up in Dallas visiting from Corpus Christi and found a super deal on a brand new set of 20" Lariat wheels with tires(including caps and lugs). Turns out, the guy works for a customizer that had three 06 Lariats to bling out for Budweiser. He kept the first set for himself and sold the other two sets for $750 a set. This was with the Pirelli Scorpions with the blue stuff still on the tires to protect the letters. Broaden your searches on Craigslist because he had them listed under Lariat wheels and tires instead of F150. I don't Ebay anymore, too frustrating.







BTW: anyone looking for a set of 17" alloys with General 255's. Only 4k on them and will let them go with caps and lugs.

That is a pretty good price, I bought mine a couple of years ago for $ 300.00, and then sold my XLT grey 17" rims and tires for 150.00. After the transformation (see pic's in gallery) man made a BIG difference.
