Wheel Specs
Got a 07 Lariat Screw 4x4 with 275/65/18 tires on chrome wheels. They are the wheels that came on the truck when new. I want to buy a 2nd set of IDENTICAL size wheels off Craigslist. I want them for winter tires. My question is:
Do all Ford F150 wheels have the same offset and backspacing? I am watching Craigslist and even though I don't mind changing style of wheel, I want to stay with a Ford factory wheel and factory size. For example, would an 18" wheel from an FX2 have the same specs? How about from an 07 Expedition?
And has Ford changed offset or backspacing from our generation F150 to the current generation? So would any Ford 18" 6 bolt wheel fit my truck the same as my OEM wheels do?

2003-current year Expedition wheels also work.
Also, Raptor wheels work too, but a leveling kit is needed to run stock Raptor tire sizes.

Thanks for the reply! I bought a set of 4 really nice rims today for $50! They were from a 2005 F150. Now I need to get the OEM TPMS Sensors. I am gonna do a "Buy It Now" from Ebay for $90 for a set of 4 sensors with bands. But I also see they sell a calibration tool for about $45. Is that something I need too? What exactly is the calibration tool?

Sorry to say that TPMS is foreign to me as they weren't utilized on my 2006. Hopefully one of the other fellas will chime in on the calibration tool request. Sounds like you got a pretty great deal though.
