I posted this in the 09 section but thought I would post it here too. I installed my 20" BMF Novakanes in the Death metal black finish on my 09 F-150 this last week. The new rims totally changed the truck. I have 285/55/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers on these rims. The rims have 5" BS with 0 offset and I have no lift or leveling kit. I have about 1/2" clearance between the front valance, a couple inches of clearance between the upper control arm but they do rub just a little against my mudflaps when the steering if at full lock. If I had no mudflaps on, they would clear. Heres some pics.

 

Looks perfect! If I were in the market for wheels the BMF Novakanes would be my first choice.

 

awesome!

i agree i LOVE the novakanes

 

They look great, one of the best looking wheels out there. I would recommend losing the mudflaps and getting a 1.5" leveling kit.

 

Looks awesome. That pic just cemented my choice of wheels.

 

Sweet!

 

Looks fantastic but good Lord you need to level that thing out!

 

Wonderful choice.

I think the difference looks "worse" or greater in the first picture simply because of the angle of the pic. In the second one, it's not near as noticable.

 

Can't lose the mudflaps. Too much gravel road travel and snow and salt in the winter months. In the spring the gravel roads turn to slop, so I'm trying to protect the paint. If I lived on blacktop I would consider taking them off but here in Iowa they are a neccessity I believe.

I'm still undecided on the level kit though.

 

...just do it.

 

I like the tire and wheel choice, as they go very well with your truck. I also agree you need to level the front to even it out.

KR-Texas.

 

Love the wheels!! Where did you get them at? I am looking to get those on my truck

 

I had the local tire shop order the rims and tires for me. Took a little longe to get the right ones since the first set they ordered in where the chrome version. Beware these rims were not cheap.

 

Very nice truck man... I just got my Novakanes installed the other day. I love these wheels!! Just for the heck of it I started a group for people that are running BMF wheels, its called BMF Wheels Club if you want to join.

 

Man I love these rims. I just wish they were in the price range of most black rims
