I like the style of the wheel. Silver looks a tad boring to me though...They would look nice DSG or black!! Cant wait to see them mounted!!

Those wheels look awesome, but they look very similar to a lot of the 20" stock wheels on later model Ford/Lincoln trucks and suv's, to me anyway.

RI, if you're spending that kind of coin on quality wheels, why not get some quality tires? If you don't want anything as aggressive as your BFG's, why not wrap them in a nice Michelin AT2, or something along those lines?
Most tires that come stock on a vehicle from the factory are junk.

My .2 cents.

Thanks guys!!

I normally don't respond this way but I just wanted to say thanks for helping me sell my tires...... It wasn't like I was going to charge him and arm and a leg. I was going to give him a good deal on tires that he apparently wanted! I know you guys are trying to be helpful and warn him about possible pitfalls on those tires, but I'm sure he did some research and it sounded to me like his mind was made up. I'm just trying to recoup a little $ on some practically new rubber.

No hard feelin's but that's my .02

Who's thread is this anyway? Is this thread posted in the classifieds section, because it seems like you're trying really hard to sell something here.

I replied to the OP, so it has nothing to do with you and your crappy tires

No hard feelings!

I have them on my 07 FX4 Screw and if you leave your truck sit for more then about 4 hours you can feel the flat spot when you fitst drive off, it goes away after 5 min or so. As for traction they are terrible IMO the only postive thing I would ahve to say about them Is that they look good... Go for some Toyo Proxes ST II. :o

But I do like the rims, nice choice!!

I'm Upset!

I just got back from work & checked my E-Mail, www.tascafordparts.com stated to me that those wheels are unavailable at this time! ...... That really sucks because I really liked the looks of those particular 20" Rims, that are made by ALCOA & are high quality rims!........Oh well, I guess I just saved myself $2100.00 between Rims/Tires!....No wonder this Ecomony Sucks, if you have money to spend on something you want, you cannot even get it!.......

Yes, Domenic is the man!

I ordered my HD headlights from him and when I received them the passenger side light was broken. He shipped a new one right out. It got here before I had a chance to ship the broken one back to him via the UPS store.

EXACTLY!! Why are you spending all that $$$ for wheels that are basically stock wheels from a Lariat? If your gonna spend 2 grand on wheels and tires at least put something different and unique on there.

Those tires are worthless. I have them on my truck now. They absolutely suck in the rain. I almost curbed my truck tonight because of them.

ANY tire other than these will be much better.

BTW, mine flat spot year round so temperature does not matter.
