Plenty more mods to come and will update post with Pics as it moves along.
Wheels are LRG 20x9 104 Splits 0-offset.
Tires are 295/65r20 Toyo AT2's (2nd set, love them).
Soon to be added.... 2.5" Pro Comp Level kit, Wrapped bumpers and main grill bars color matched to Magnetic Two Tone, Painted Ingot Silver F250 badges and Ford ovals, Complete Digital Designs audio system BC6.5" components - A5 4channell amp - 2 8" subs in custom box - M80sub amp - DSi DSP, Bakflip MX4 bed cover, 2wd front air dam, rear wheel well liners and of course window tint.

Looks good. I wish I had got the power steps. The dealer worked them into the deal but the truck came without them. They told me they are a factory option and can't be dealer installed.

Offshore, I believe those steps are from Amp Research. I'm not positive that Ford uses the Amp steps, but man, they look almost identical. You can look at them on Amazon.

If I am seeing the pics correctly, your new wheels don't stick out any further that stock, correct?

What about TPMS?

Prefer the look of the factory wheels over the custom set, but dig the lettering and two tone. Nice truck!

It's always fun to see the old truck next to the new one. I didn't realize how fast the previous model can look old but it does. Love the wheels.

Just curious - why order $1400+ factory wheel option if you swapped them out with old wheels?

Nice truck. The little guy could make F150 commercials like the little guy in the Subaru Commercial.

Looks great and thanks for the pics. Your colors and options are pretty much what I'm about to order. So, great to see how good it looks in the real world!

They do just a hair more than stock, in the head on pic my wheel is turned a bit and it looks like it's sticking out further but the tire bulges are about dead even with the outside of the fender flare. No problem at all with TPMS, had to break down each tire to swap the 2017 tpms sensors into the aftermarket wheels and they programmed fine. Maybe people are trying to run aftermarket tpms sensors and they won't link up??

Here you go Yeah my little '66 sleeper. A quick video of the electric exhaust cutouts opened up at about the 10 second mark in the video. It's got a stroked Pontiac 400 w/ aluminum heads and a custom ground hydraulic roller cam. 461 cubic inches 480hp & 551tq it's a handful

My dealer likes those wheels a lot and wanted them for my trade so he gave me additional $$ off the invoice pricing. Since my takeoffs were long gone and I was taking my aftermarket wheels/tires I would have had to spend some dough on something for the trade so we worked out a deal.

Installed the 2wd front air dam. You do have to do something about the "civic stoppers" (little frame horn pieces) if you care about seeing them. I've always just taken a sawzall to them, you can see the pieces laying on the ground that I cut off. For me I like the look better and that extra 3" of approach angle is nice when working or playing. I've ripped a couple off of previous trucks so this is a must for me.
