Diesel Wheels' conversion kits

i saw a old episode of gearz when they chose wheels for heavy metal tow truck. they used Diesel Wheels' conversion kit. i was wondering if anyone has ever seen these and if they are any good. i like the big classic rims but get with a direct bolt on option. somehow i bet u need a lifted ex since smallest they sell is 19.5"

Micky Tompson makes a wheel like that.

They are a better option than running a spacer that's for sure. Less out nuts to worry about.

I agree! I would never run any sort of spacer or adapter on my vehicles. Have seen to many wheels fall off because of them.

Personally I think Ford did a great job on the wheels that are stock on the Excursions. I could have bought an expensive set of Boyd Coddington wheels for the Excursion from a friend cheap, but really didn't like them as well as the stock ones.
