That's what I'm thinking but I'm not sure. My friend has a very early 04 FX4 and he got 17" machined aluminum wheels on his. They look just like the 18"s....

Those dont look like any FX4 wheels I have ever seen, and I believe last5oh is right, 16's will not clear the calipers. Think this dude is tryin to scam people. Luckily not ouy of much.

These almost look like the ones dude has for sale.....They have to be 17's. If they are I'm gonna pick them up and paint em black.

I thought the expidition rims would not fit on an f150. You could put f150 rims on an expy, but not the other way around.

In the ad it states this:

"They are all pretty straight "

I sure as fuk hope so!

They are straight. I rolled them on the dudes garage floor and they looked good, I guess I'll find out for sure when I try to mount/balance them. 1 is a little curbrashed and by no means are they perfect. They were on the guys truck for 120,000 but like I said, I'm gonna paint them black and if it looks good I'll get them powdercoated. If it turns out 1 is bent then I'll throw them back on CL for $100

one clean one dirty

2 clean

looks like they cleaned right up to me!

I know it aint my truck and I should just STFU but I would like to see them mounted as is before painting to see how they looked. I bet the chrome would look killer on your truck!
