anyone in houston area can call up to helfman ford and see what they did with the wheels they took off the raptor the did work on.

other than that i wouldnt expect to see them soon since oem wheels are crazy expensive

I wouldn't mind a set of those. They'd match the DSG on the bottom of my truck.

Wont that offset pull the inside of the wheel closer to the control arms and other suspension on a non raptor truck? Clearance may be an issue.

I am seriously considering them for my truck, but does anybody know how different the offset and backspacing would be from the factory 18's I have now? I wanting to put on a 35/1250/17 tire with a 2 1/2" leveling kit installed.

While I understand them being 17" on the Raptor, I wish that Ford (or a replica company) would make another version larger. I would totally rock a set of Raptor wheels in 20's or 22's...

...Then again I'm still wanting Lightning Reps in the NBS bolt pattern...
