center cap help, 03 17"
hey, quick question... I picked up a set of these wheels cheap but they did not have the center cap. I thought my sawblade caps might fit but they do not. any of you have a set of these on your truck, I looked through a few of the gallerys but didn't see them. want to know what they look like, front or back so I can pick some up. I'll post some new pics of the truck with the wheels in a few days. They are Ford 17" 03 F150(maybe others) Part # 3L3Z-1007-AB
Thanks
Thanks

Thanks, they looked better than i was expecting.
I did check fordpartsonline found the illustration. they are a type 16 wheel and a type 12 cap. they show the part, but not the number, guess I could call for it.
they use fancy, capped lugnuts too.
the tires are 33x12.5x17 Procomp MTRs
just need to find someone selling the centercaps cheap now

UPDATE!
So it's been over a year and a half since I posted this and today I have closure.
I had been looking on and off for the heritage caps for these wheels, but they are hard to come by since they had such a short production run. Sure, I could get them from Ford, but that would cost me more than I paid for the wheels. In looking at the different caps it looked like the standard Lightning caps would be the same thing, just a SVT in the middle instead of the Ford Logo. They are a lot more common and there are lots of knock-offs out there. Still the price was never what I wanted to pay for a guess, and all my Lightning friends are back in Texas. But then a week or so ago I came across genuine Ford Lightning caps, never used on ebay for $20. Just had to try at that price. Got them on today, fit perfect, look great! Truck is dirty so no picture now.
