Kinda like this one too: Black Rhino Dune It's a 20x9 with -12 offset, or about 4.5" BS.

I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking for... but here's the basics. I'd prefer a black wheel, but machined faces are cool too, no chrome wheels here. I'm going to stick with 20" wheels so I can use my current tires. They've got at least another 25k miles on them, and I'd like to get rid of...

So I've been looking at new wheels that won't require me to run spacers. My current wheels have 6 3/8 BS, or an offset of +35 I really like these: Liquid Metal Magma (Black) #1 problem is it's a 20x8.5 wheel, so not as wide as I'd like, plus the BS is 5.73, which still may be too much...

Two of the happiest days in man's life revolve around his boat. The first is the day he buys the boat, the second is the day he sells that boat!

Glad to hear it worked out for ya! :thumbs::cheers:

Not really sure on the wheels yet. I want to stick to mostly black, but not entirely black. It'll be a little while before I need tires, and after buring the cash for this last bit of work, I need the time to rebuild funds. It rides great! I'm guessing my stock hardware was worn pretty well...

Take plenty of before/during/after photos!

Most of my goodies... I got some new stuff in a while back, but haven't taken any pics, but I got new pads, wash mitt, mf towels, drying towel, machine polish, machine wax and a powerstick for the wheels.

:thumbs: They're all I use. Check out their forums... I'll link to my thread showing before and afters when I get to a comptuer. Edited: Here's the link to my thread on another site... http://www.f150online.com/forums/care-detailing/268970-my-first-detailing-adventure.html

Thanks guys! I'll probably get new wheels when these tires wear out. Thing is, I've only got 25k miles on the tires. Of course I could always try and sell the wheels and tires as a combo and try to pick up something new sooner. Any interest Jeff? They'd set off that 2.0" leveling kit just...

It's done! They used the wheel spacers on the front, I'm thinking of picking up another pair for the rears to even out the wheel poke. Anyone know where I can get a set of black shock boots? Since it'd be a PITA to swap boots, I was thinking of just slicing open the back ones, putting them...

Any one interested a used 2.0" autospring leveling kit?

Just called the shop. They're just finishing with installation and are about to start on alignment, then testing. Should be ready by 5:00.

I'd go with a 2nd battery for reason #3 above. And so I can hook up more gizmos!

Well they managed to get the wheels off and here are a few teasers... They should have everything finished up and aligned around lunchtime tomorrow if nothing goes wrong (knock on wood). I talked to the guy doing the install and he said so far it's been a piece of cake.

Must be one of the largest vehicles on the road over there! :lol:

Haven't heard back from the shop, so I'm guessing they got the lug key situation figured out. If they don't have one laying around, Discount Tire (where I got my wheels/tires) is like 1/4 mile down the road. 4WP can always send a wrench monkey down there to pick up a key if they had to. If...

X2, mine peeled right off. I think it was on the truck for a week, 2 max.

yeah, that' how i'm looking at it. They also couldn't find the key to my lugs, which I always keep in the drivers side door. I'm wondering if the Ford dealership snagged it when they rotated my tires last time I was in for regular maintenance.

Shop just called... said the tie rods were shot and they wouldn't be able to properly align the truck after the lift... Add another $200 into the pot. They said the ball joints still looked good though! :cheers:

Truck is in the shop. I feel strange, like I'm naked or something.

^ That's great, but I'm running 20" wheels. If anything I might drop back to 18s sometime, but I doubt I'd ever go as small as 17.

haha, its rare I'm actually running all that stuff at once. I don't run the HID fogs in the city, I'm sure there's way too much glare, same with the PIAA lights (except the LED which draws virtually nothing). Regardless, you see why the idea of a 2nd battery appeals to me!

Pretty sure its a 130 amp unit. Right now I've got my sound system (ran 1 power wire to a distribution block to hook up 2 amps), HID fogs, PIAA 525s and AMP Powersteps all hooked up to the battery. So I'd want to add the HID headlights, maybe some e-fans...

Sweet! I might have to steal your idea if I can find pictures of the various stages of modding What are those things on your vents?
