Does anyone out there have American Racing Wheels on their F-150? In particular, I'm looking for people with Python or Atlas wheels. I'm thinking of putting some on my '01 Screw and want to get some opinions and pics of your Atlas/Pythons. Also, let me know what tires and sizes your running so I'll know what the pic shows. Thanks guys!!

I have the Atlas on my F250LD. The first pic is with 265/70/17's and second with 33" ProComps.

 

Here's one:

 

I really like the look of the Atlas. Those pics helped me pic the wheels that I now want to get. I am wonder what the difference is between the Atlas and the Python? Thanks again for those pics guys. Eric

 

Thanks for help so far guys. I've got to figure out the diameter difference between 33's, 32's, 31's and some of the bigger tires sizes like 315 and 305.

kkirt, I like your truck. That is the look I'm goig for. Looks like my black screw, except mine is 2wd. I have some torsion bar cranking in my future. Did you have to trim the lower valance at all to make the 305's fit??? Thanks!

 

i have an american racing NOOZ chrome 18 x 8 with 285/60/18 mich. tires, 31.5 tall. I have done the lowered truck low profile thing and the lifted big tire thing - this is my favorite . this size fills the wheel wells just right. the rims must be very "true" because my ride is very smooth.

 

I too am contemplating an Atlas wheel in a 16x8 but can't decide from Polished OR Chrome?
Any opinions?

I already have a set of ProComp AT's 305/70/16's!

I'm only gonna use these wheels in the summer so they won't get exposed to the winter salt.

All I know is that Chrome is hell of a lot more expensive.

 

No, I didn't have to trim anything and have no rubbing problems. I have had better tires (BFG A/T) but these look good, ride decent, and didn't cost an arm and a leg.

As far as chrome or polished... well, chrome would be easier to take care of but the extra dough is to much. I clean mine with Mothers a few times a year and they stay in pretty good shape. I even run them through the winters and have had no compliants.

Take care!

 

what are you guys runnin with the atlas, chrome or polished?

I have a set of 16 x 8 AR/Atlas wheels, wrapped in 295/60/16 Goodyear Eagle GT-II's. I had them on my 1999 F-150 SCab, and my 2000 Expedition. I just bolted on some AR/Vanguard 20"'s on my 2000 Expedition. The tires still have about 15-20K miles left on them, but as with any performance tire, there is, and was never a tread life warranty.

I am asking $600.00 for wheels & tires, but I'll only sell them as a set. (I need to get rid of them to get my garage space back).

They are polished and still look great.
You can see them at:

Serious inquiries, e-mail me at: dontstartnone@yahoo.com

 

Chrome will probably run you an extra $50-75 per wheel. I got the polished Atlas.
If you have the Ford mudflaps, they may rub. Here's some advise. Don't cut them. Get a heat gun and bend them back alittle. Looks alot better than cutting them.

 

 

I really like them American Racing Atlas Rims! I currently have a 1998 4x4 f-150 flareside and I just bought some 265x75-16's. I think I am going to get me a pair. I need to take some pictures since I have modded my truck out. Looking forward to doing some more modifications once I sell my car. =)

 

Where on Earth did you get those in a 7 lug!?!? I've been looking for a set of Atlas's for a 7700 !
