Possibly the first look at Fuel Offroad Throttles

Hello all! I have been lurking around the site since I bought my F150 but figured I would wait to post until I had something to share. I could not find any photos of an F150 with Fuel Offroad Throttles but bought them anyway. I purchased them in February and have been waiting not so patiently "for the manufacturer to cut them". They are finally on and if I was told the truth could be one of the few sets in the US.

I can't post pics yet so check out my album and tell me what you think....

Thanks guys! I'm proud of the way it turned out.

Blue - The wheel specs are 20x10, 5" BS or -12 offset and the tires are 33x12.50 Toyo Open Country MT's.

Lightning - Your Expo was inspiration to go with 20x10's. I waited so long I was on the verge of switching to Hostages. I called the very last time with that intent and the guy told me the first 6 off the machine line were ready and asked if I still wanted 4 of them. Of course I said yes. As far as I know they were the first 4 available. Probably not but that's my story and I'm sticking to it. LOL!!

any rub, looks like u r leveled?
I went with a +18 offset, fronts stick out past the flares but the backs really dont, but i have no rub either. Still deciding if i want a level. It rides so nice stock

again, nice choice!

You're right, I do have a 3" level kit. I had some rubbing on the inside of the fender flare on both sides at the back. I trimmed the horizontal part of the flare that turns towards the center of the truck in a line continuing in the same arc as the vertical part so it looks like it is supposed to be that way. Hope that makes sense. Now the only rubbing I have is at full lock when the suspension flexes. If I were to do any hard off roading the inner fender would have to be trimmed some.
