Those are 18 inch SVT (Special Vehicle Teams) rims. A guy in Las Vegas had them . He bought them new and had never put them on the ground. There were 5 rims and 4 had brand new Michelin LTX/AT tires on them. They are for our year vehicles so no spacers

This thread should help to understand what is available in OEM plus sized (over 16") rims that will directly bolt up to our EXs without need for spacers.
(David, it's got picture of your old EX, I hope it not too painfull to see that.)
