F150 rims

Does anybody know if there are Oem alloy replicas made by any companies? I have steel rims/hubcaps on my XL 2WD. And i want to put a set of Alloys off of a XLT,etc . I figure it would be easier to find a new set, instead of searching for a takeoff set of rims.

And buying new from Ford would be too expensive

My XLT has the chrome/steel wheels, but the previous owner didn't drive it all that often so they have some rust around the edges. I'm hoping to get a set of 17" aluminum wheels from an XLT (I like the 2-tone ones) from someone who got custom wheels and is selling the stockers.

Yeah. We're not too far apart. I'm going to wait till my current tires get worn out. Still the factory Hankooks with 26k on them.

rims

Too keep it on topic, somewhat...
Is there a thread somewhere, with photos of the different rims that cam on the F150's? Such as 17", 18" 20 " sizes that came on different models, and years?

I don't think it will be difficult to find a good set of take off rims, My first look and there were several sets of nice rims. 2013 alloy 17" , an 18" set, and 20" set. some with tires, some without. I am having a tough time deciding, since my truck has new tires 235/70-17. but would really like to go bigger rim.

I might be a member of adv rider forum. I will check and try to login. I have only been there a few times, and I always join forums when I need info.
Current off road bike is a 2012 GASGAS 300xc, my street bikes always change. I currently don't own one, just sold my Harley. Had a Versys before that, and many others before that.

ADV Rider, Check the Seattle CL. There are several sets on there just this week. I was looking for replacement 18" tires and saw several sets of take offs in the 17-20" range. Good luck!

20"

Does anybody run 275/55-20 on fx4 rims on their 4x2? Do you have to use level kit? How bad does it hurt power with a 4.6l.
