I am thinking of buying the 20" Harley Davidson wheel for my lightning. I have the HD soft tonneau cover on the truck and I think that the HD 20's would look sweet. I have to make up my mind by tomorrow so please give me your opinion. How do you think it would look? And if anyone is good with photoshop if they could put them on my lightning that would be awesome.
Thanks, Bill

Have you priced them things yet? The cheapest Ive found them was @ www.karkraft.com
and they are 795.00 a piece!!
Id have to see them on the truck to decide if they looked good. I think the stock L wheels look better than anything else.

Someone is selling a brand new set with zero miles for $2000.00 firm.
I have a set of the 20" chrome lightning wheels on reserve but i'm just trying to decide which ones I want to get.

 

Just buy the 20" chromed lightning wheels that are coming out in May.
Or get the stock wheels chromed.

hdmlnium:
If ya got the $ thats a greta price on the HD wheels. You also said you had 20' chrome L wheels on reserve? You mean 18' dont ya? Ive never heard anyone making a 20' L wheel.(yet)

 

Why?

 

Skank Dog:
For the 20" L wheels look in a new issue of Muscle Mustangs & Fast Fords, Classic Motorsports has them in silver or chrome and they should have them next week some time.

20" chrome wheels on a lowered Lightning look sweet, thats why

Zeus 2k1:
Thanks, thats what I'm looking for I'm just trying to see what people think would look better.

Any way you slice it if I see your truck there will be drool on it

The harley's look sweet but I think the 20 chrome L wheels will look sweet too. If the guy can hold onto the HD wheels get him to until you see the 20 inch L face to face. I hated the 10 spoke F-150 wheels till I saw them in person now I love 'em

My only complaint about the Lightnings is that they have too much wheel well gap for being a performance vehicle...so my opinion...GET THEM 20'S!!! The bigger the better!!!

Thanks everyone for the comments, I still haven't decided but I think cloneteks L looks sweet with the HD wheels. Well, I told the guy that I would let him know buy tomorrow so I still have a little time to decide.
Hey clonetek,
Could you photoshop a lowering kit on your truck, say a 3/4 kit so I could see how it all looks with the HD wheels?

 

May want to check the width of the H-D wheels. I believe they are only 8.0" wide. The L wheels are 9.5".

The H.D. wheels look sweet, but are going to seriousl impair your performance. Can't get any serious rubber on them.

I was told that they are 20x9's so after I burn them baby 275's off I would put on some 295/40/20's. I asked the guy what size they were and he said 20x9's but I will call ford tomorrow just to be safe.
Thanks for all the replies and keep them coming. Decision time tomorrow.
