Best wheel adapters
I need some wheel adapters for my 2003 f150 I want to put some 2018 f150 wheels on it but I cant seem to find any that is an inch and a half thick. I can only find 2 inch thick ones and im scared they will stick out to far and not look right does anyone know where I can get 1 and a half inch thick wheel adapters? Or will the 2 inch thick ones work and look right?

wheel adaptors are not a good idea on a truck that is used to carry a load.... adaptors are for trailer queen cars that go to shows or set and look pretty........... not for trucks.... Do yourself a favor and get good 5 bolt rims made for the 2003.

As long as they are good quality adapters and installed properly, there is no problem towing or hauling with them. I have had 2" spacers/adapters on my f250 for 2 years, no problems at all.

We're they original stock rims or aftermarket and if they were aftermarket Did They stick out from the truck or have stock appearance?

They are stock 16x7 wheels with 315/75/16 tires, they stick out a little bit but not to bad. The 4" wider track with also improved stability.

It is likely that the adapters are so thick because they need to leave room for the original studs so the (adapted) wheel doesn't touch then.
