Easily a few hundred different aftermarket styles for your seven lugger. Any brand you can think of.

There are only a couple of aftermarket 7 lug wheels for your truck. American Racing and Eagle Alloy are the only ones I can think of.

Hi,

I have the same truck and have been looking for rims.
Centerline will drill the 7 lug in any of their offroad/lifted trucks category.
http://www.centerlinewheels.com/sub_wheel.php?mw_id=2

I personally like the grizzly, the only 7 spoke pattern I could find. The picture shows an 8 lug wheel.

Right now I have the stock 16" chrome plated rims with Toyo Open Country.
I'm told 2 of the rims are bent, and 2 or slightly bent. So new rim shopping I go!
The steering wheel will turn left and right pretty bad between 70 and 80 Kph... otherwise not very noticable. Its my speed limit wobble... annoying.

Thinking I will just get the cheap Argent steel rims from ford for winter... and the centerline grizzly for summer.

Even on the centerline site they don't show 7 lug pattern available... but I was told on the phone it wasn't a problem.

The price difference from ford on the 2 rims available is big... I was told 80 for Argent and 230 for chrome... Canuckian of course. Thoughts on this?

Cheers

Giving this a bump as I'd like to know if there are any opinions between the basic Argent steel rims and the chrome plated ones from Ford. Is there a quality difference in these?

I think they are the same wheel. One is just painted while the other is chromed.

Just bought the stock painted wheels and then painted them black and put the original chrome center on. They look real nice to me, especialy for my winter look.

There are only a small handful of wheels that will fit the obs 7-luggers

OP - Try ebay as that's where I got mine off. I know of two types listed - a guy by the name of Rons Rims or something has the baja style eagle rims and a guy named midwestwheelcover that sells a pacer wheel (which I bought). They were fairly cheap and I couldn't be happier. Hope that helps but you really are limited on the selection of wheels that can be bought off the shelf and put on as is :o
