Ive been seeing alot of new OEM Wheels for F150's on Ebay for very cheap...are these real, or knockoffs?
I actually like the wheels for the FX4, but Im a bit leary.

I would say they are real take-offs. As a matter of fact I have a set of FX4 rims in the garage I can never use again too!

There are a lot of them out there due to the fact that a lot of us are either just changing the rims and tires to be different or installing lifts and larger wheels and tires.

Just make sure the e-bay seller is reputable and go for it.

I would check craigslis.com in your area before you bought on ebay. Better pricing. Just an observation.

 

I never understood why people would buy aftermarket OEM wheels? If your gonna spend the $$$ get something original that makes your truck look unique!

 

I have a set, $400 shipped. Original 18" fx4's.

 

Lets say one may have bought the base model Ford w/o any options. Take-offs from a Lariat might make the truck look better, and come with low mileage tires. Aftermarket rims do look nice. But I have seen ALOT of them look as if they were purchased at Auto Zone...

 

This is just my personal opinion but i like the OEM 18" fx4 wheels and the 20" oem ford wheels better than most aftermarket's i see.

 

Because the do not look cheap, like some of the aftermarket rims.

 

I have OEM wheels. Why? Nobody will steal them. Aftermarket bling creates a high profile vehicle which is more attractive to thieves and traffic cops. Unless an aftermarket wheel is able to add horsepower, I don't want it.

But back to the subject, the main drawback to purchasing would be to pay for the shipping. How much weight are we talking about here?

 

Thanks for the replies. I actually like the OEM FX4 wheel too, better then alot of the after markets Ive seen. Still looking right now. Just ran across ebay yesterday and was curious.

I sent you an email djwill. I'm looking to sell my oem 18" fx4 wheels and tires as well. Holla if youre interested.

 

Look on Craigslist.com before Ebay...you can pick them up locally, and save a ton on shipping, and see before you buy. If you have no experience with Craigslist.com, PM me and we can talk over the phone.

 

Yah man i bought 4 stock 16" wheels with good/decent tires for 60 bucks on CL

See above

 

Hey redsnap I am interested how much you asking?

 

I dont think we can discuss pricing on here so email me and i'll shoot you back a price. I had someone who was going to buy them from this site (Cmolina) but his email is full or something because my replies dont get delivered. My email is Jeremy180@centurytel.net , i'll send u some pics as well.
