2011 Wheel question

Wasn't sure if this should go in the wheels/tires section or here...
Anyway,
Does anyone know if the wheel specs like lug pattern on the 2011's are the same as the 2009/2010? My '09 is 6x135 lug pattern.

I'm thinking I may be upgrading somewhere around the end of 2011 if the EB engine proves to be a gas-saver and reliable. I'm about to put new tires on my '09 and will most likely go with a 305/55/20. I'd like to put them on new wheels if I can transfer those wheels to the 2011 when (or if) I get one.

If the bolt pattern is different then I'll just put the new tires on the factory rims, if it's the same I'll keep the stock tire/rim combo in the garage and put it back on the truck when I sell/trade it. The stock tires still have probably 8 or 10 thousand miles of life left in them.

pretty sure the bolt pattern is the same. they are offering the same wheels as whats on my 10' so i would guess they didnt change the bolt pattern.

They have the same bolt patern, but that doesn't garantee you they will fit.


I sold my 05 FX4 18'' to my mom (winter wheels) for her 09 and they didn't fit on the front. They rub big time on the caliper support/bracket. She had to buy 1/4'' spacer for them to fit.

But the 17" wheels will fit. It is just the way the FX4 18" wheel was made. I am using the extra set off an XLT on my 09 for my winter tires.

Thanks for all the responses folks. Much appreciated.

I figured they would be the same since there were no real Frame/Body changes since '09.

My FX4 has the 20" wheels and I'll most likely be going with a 20" aftermarket wheel.

Last night I photoshop'd a wheel on my truck and I think it looks pretty good. I'll start a new thread for that discussion.

When you get your aftermarket tires, make sure you get valve stems that will mount the TPMS sensors. You will not be able to reuse those of the OE wheels. Sensors yes, but not the valve stems themselves.
