Since my other thread was getting a bit long, I thought I'd throw a new one up for my wheel/tires. I'm now looking for an outright sale on my wheels/tires, as I'm picking up a set of OEM wheels in the morning.
The wheels are 17x7.5"(14mm offset) FX4 wheels from an F-150. I have a set of custom made adapters that fit the F-150 wheels to our ST's bolt pattern. They're hubcentric to the ST and lugcentric to the wheels. Due to this, I had the studs upgraded to 14mm studs for added strength. The adapters are 1.25" thick front, 2" thick rear. They give the truck a really nice, wide stance.
The tires are 285/70-17 Bridgestone Revos which measure out to almost 32.8". I had them put on in July of 2009 and they have about 17K miles on them, most of which is from a trip to Texas and back, as well as several trips to and from Kentucky, and trips to the airport in Orlando. They've seen very little city driving, have been rotated and checked for balance 3 times now, and all measure out at 9-10/32's of tread remaining (either 11 or 12/32 when new).
You can reuse you're stock lug nuts for the adapters to the truck, but I'll include the deep chrome spline drive lugs for the wheels to the adapters.
I've got $300 in the wheels, $250 in the adapters, $50 in the lugs, and almost $900 in the tires. I'm asking $800 for all of it. I will gladly ship at cost via FedEx which can be very reasonable, or I will do anything I can to help facilitate delivery.
I should also add, I was running these with just a 1" TT and some trimming in the front. I eventually added shackles in the back, as I was sitting almost completely level with the weight of my topper and the tools I was carrying around a lot. I would get a minor rub occasionally when turning sharply into a parking spot, but not too bad. Also, they're not clean in these pics, as I had just come back from 2 weeks of snow and rain in Kentucky and had only given the truck a very quick wash to get the salt off.
