Thanks!
In my opinion the SVT caps are less than inspiring....... I like the standard chrome caps on those rims and of course your stock lug nuts (if you have them) will be perfect on them.

Tom, I did not get any caps or lugs but I believe they were still in the original Ford boxes. I've read enough on here to know that you are the man when it comes to these 18" wheels.

Here is a picture of the tag on the box.

Lol my boxes looked like they had been thru quite a ride too. Does anybody have a picture of an SVT cap?

Here is a good thread on the factory wheels. The SVT wheels are on post #5.

I agree.
Standard center caps are exactly what I was thinking too.
Unfortunately no stock lugs, but a NAPA is close by.

Yes the svt caps are not very special. I've never had new wheels before. They are very clean. 4 harley, 4 svt and 2 kr are now in my bedroom. 3 full sets of tires. Trifecta complete. I can surely say I do not need any more wheels...maybe another excursion tho!

Yep, you need another EX! Then you can have both with full sets including spares of the '04 18"s.

Watcher, that is a very nice looking rig you got yourself!
It was your pictures in this thread that helped me make the decision on what center caps.

It's probably salvage because it looks like the tazmanian devil went through the inside. People like that should just be beaten and sentenced to a date with Hilary the Hut
