opinions..........what do you all think?

well, im not sure what i really want to do. after buying a bad set of FX4 wheels from some @$$hole here, i ended up spending more money to get a good set. i thought i really liked them (before i had them). but now, im not so sure. so, do you all think i should keep the FX4 wheels? or put my stock XLT "teardrops" back on?



or

IMO: the FX4's give it a little bit more of a Bad@^% look. Adds a little more attitude to your truck.

I always liked the "tear drops" as you call them. I like the more solid wheel look rather then the open look of the FX4 wheels. The FX4 wheels are nice too, it's just when I look at them I think Ford Escape's. My wife's 08' Ford Escape has very close to, if not the same wheels as the FX4. Not that it's a bad thing, I just like your original wheels better.

I like the FX4's better, and it ties the truck in with your L nicely too. Black out the FX4s if you want something a little different.

Take the FX4s off and give them to me
For some reason, in the pics, I like the tear drops better. Not sure if it is the angle, or if your tires look too small for my liking with the FX4s on.

Any other pics?

FX4s definitely, they really add a lot to your truck. The other wheels look terrible.

i thought that too when i 1st put them on. only differences between the pics (other than the wheels) are the pic with the FX4 wheels has the new step bars & a blacked out billet grille.
