My better half ususally knows about the modifications on my truck. What she doesn't know is how many sets of wheels/tires I have for my truck. I have or have had about every wheel Ford makes for the '04-up F-150. Heck I even have a set of Expedition wheels with Goodyear Fortera Tripletreds now. Funny thing is the only thing she notices is when I have a different set of step bars on...or none at all.
BTW does anyone know if you can cause metal fatigue to your lug bolts from changing wheels too much???

Yeah, I know this thread will probably get moved. Just have no idea where it belongs...

When I think about my truck I don't even remember that I'm married. I swear if the wife would let me put a lift and bigger tires on her I'd do it!
