Those are so much cheaper than the KMC Slides I want and look like GT 500 wheels. I might have to look into them.

Thats a really good price for those wheels, they were listed for 360 each when they first came out. I wonder if they have similar deals on the other size or the polished version of that wheel?

The other size is a 20x8.5 just like the factory 20's and will fit 2wd trucks.

I'm guessing it has to do with the front offset?

Why would a 10" wide wheel not fit the 2wd? Is it the upper arm? Or the shock/spring or something?

Not sure. Ford says in the description that the 10" wheel has 7.125" BS and will fit 4wd only. The 8.5" wheel has 6.56" BS and will fit 2wd and 4x4.

tlt008 has a set of the 10" on his truck and look how far they are tucked under, that might help explain why they won't fit a 2wd.

Interesting. I would guess the offset on the 2wd spindle is different than the 4wd. Perhaps it's in an extra inch or more towards the engine that makes the offset such an issue. Thanks for the info as I was thinking of bagging me a set for a winter toss-around.

GCW has a set on his 2wd STX, don't know if his is the 8.5's or the 10's. Check with him and see what he has and if he has any fitment issues.
