I think that wheel\tire combo is sweet on the new F-150's. I really like the offset of those wheels and the tires really compliment the look over all. Post the pics!

do you guys think if i put that spacer on there sinces its only 1.5" it wouldnt hurt the CV's plus it comes with upper control arms. people say its a bad idea to stack spacers as well.... but thats the least of my woories i just want to save my CV's.
