I would like to find some (New) for a little cheaper than tirerack wants for them ($80 + shipping each).

Dorman sells a 5 lug wheel for the f150 but nothing newer.

 

$80 is about as cheap as they get I think. When I lost my spare I searched the internet for a used rim and finally found one as low as $50 at a salvage yard that they shipped for free. the lip was a little bent but didn't affect the usage of the rim. It ran true. I actually used vise grips and a hammer to bend the lip back almost to the original position.

 

Why steel?

I picked up a set of aluminum wheels with caps and lug nuts for $100 off CL for my studs and they are easy to clean and don't rust.

 

The steel wheels are just cheaper than a brand new set of allow wheels. Id rather not take a chance with used wheels if I have a choice.

 

Fair enough.

 

understandable, but if you inspect them first you should be OK.

There are about a million F150 owners that put on larger wheels so the supply of almost-new OE wheels is quite large.

 

A person can search for and buy used oem wheels cheaper than new steel ones
