I am going to be doing a X/B code swap on my 00 EX. Also doing either summit 2.5" leveling kit or Zone off road F4 2.5" leveling kit, both kits are for diesels. My B codes have the Rancho RS60642 Add-A-Leaf Kit with factory 4" blocks. Will be using the Belstein 5100 shocks at all 4 corners along with steering stabilizer. My question is I found a good deal on a set of American racing outlaw rims in 16"x 10" 4.25"bs. Going to paint rims black also just like that look. Will 315/75r16 work or is that streatching the tire to much on that wide of a rim or just use the factory 16x7 rims that I already have or using a set of the factory steel rims in black with 315/75r16's. Oh yea building custom winch bumpers & plan on 12V cummins conversion soon also thats why the X codes for added weight.

Some people are using the 7" wheels with 315's. Maybe they will chime in.......
Here's a link talking about using them with 7" stock wheels. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...ock-wheel.html looks like they're designed for 8.5" wheels so I doubt another .75" per side will give you much trouble on a wheel that size. Your looking at a 12.5" wide tire on a 10" wheel, it's gonna look a big weird but should work.
I am leaning toward the stock wheels to save some money & maybe for some 16" X 8" or save for some 18" rims. Undecided also been thinking about this old Apache tent trailer I found to turn into & offroad camping trailer & putting same size tires as the EX on it . Anyone have pictures of the stock aluminum rims painted black?

Nope, I was going to paint mine till i went to 16.5" wheels. Now i have a set of aluminum stock excursion wheels sitting outside. hard to get rid of stock wheels.
