okay so I found some black rims, XD*Series Rockstar XD775. it says they are aluminum painted. Now does that mean that if a rock bumps up and hits the rim the paint is gonna chip off and I'm gonna see the silver shine through? It says they are made for off-road.. Also, right now my tires are 35/12.5/20 so if the wheels I wanna get are 20x12 those are gonna work right?

One more thing, I need help findin those rims cheaper because the places I have found online are over $300 for my size. If it's not possible please give me other suggestions for black rims that look good and will last.


Thank you! This is a lot of work

 

The 20x12 will be too wide for a 35x12.50 tire, plus they will stick out pretty far on your truck. Most tire manufactures list the approved rim width on their web site. When I was looking, the widest rim for a 35x12.5 was 11 inches.

I would look for a 20x10 wheel with at least 5-6 inches of BS. The narrower rims will be cheaper. XD has the black Rockstars, Monsters and Revolvers which all look good. The Rockstars and Revolvers come in a 20x10, but I am not sure about the Monsters.

I have the 18x9 Black Rockstars on my truck, but they are new and I cannot really say how well they are going to hold up. There are lots of others who use them on this forum, so maybe someone else will chime in.

thank you. they look beautiful on your truck. do you have the black carbon fiber head-lights?

 

I agree with Tex. I would just stick with the 20x8,9,10 tires will be cheaper this way. Have fun paying for those expensive *** all terrain tires. Also I would say if they are painted than after awhile rocks could chip the paint just like your truck.

i have Mud Terrains. lol no A/Ts

thanks for the site misplaced

 

No prob. and my bad either way them bitches our expensive that's why I went street tires. Show pics next week. Anytime good luck and nice truck. And you should get the grey healights. They look awesome on our color trucks.

 

No. I have the FX4 Luxury package which comes with the Paint-to-Match Door handles, Bumbers and Front Grille. It also has the factory FX4 front lights which are a dark shadow gray. Some people call them flat black, but they are closer to the color of my truck, rather than a flat black.

Here is a better picture of the front:

still very nice. and whats up with your ford logo.. is it not blue? its hard to tell

 

Patriotdecals.com have whatever color ford emblems decals you want. And try and find the gray headlights on ebay. They are over $500 if you get them from the dealrship.

 

I painted my F150 badges with Krylon satin black and I have dark shadow gray inlays. On the ovals, I painted them satin black and used dark shadow gray overlays with flat black letters. You can get them from PatriotDecals.com for less then $40.

Here is a post where I explain how I prepared the truck to paint them:

Hey Tex I order the gray inlays for the decals on the side but they had this wierd film on it and look like crap so I disgard them. Don't know if I order the wrong ones or not. And your decals look awesome I mean freaking awesome.

 

i just ordered some pink ones

 

yeah i would stick with 20x10's. 20x12's and 12.50 wide tire make the tire look bubbled on the edges. also any painted wheel show the aluminum if scratched, i believe they make a touch-up paint pen for them incase that would happen.

stick with a 4.5" backspacing they will stick out like what you have now, 5" backspacing is the max allowed to run with the pro comp lift.

the cheapest place to find them i have found is rim zone off of ebay 925 shipped, i doubt you will find them much cheaper

There was a protective film on mine, but I removed it after sticking them to the painted badges. Each letter came off individually and then I used the edge of my drivers license to smooth them out. I had a few bubbles and I poked a hole in them with a pin before smoothing them again. After a day or two, the holes completely disappeared.

The inlays really changed the look of the badges and I am glad I bought them.

I think your truck is one of the few that could pull off the pink look.

Take some photos when you get them installed.
