17" Exp Rims?
I just put some SSC chrome rims and new Michelin tires on my Expedition and was very worried about selling my old rims with CONTINENTALS...... EBAY wasn't going too well and the newspaper wasn't bringing too many prospects. It's funny how people want something for nothing.
While working at my part time job at Sears Automotive, a guy came in and priced some aftermarket 17" rims and tires from me. Well, after seeing the 2k plus I spent, I said, "Brother, let me show you something." Well, 750 bucks later, I sold my stock rims and tires and BOOM! What timing.
Big Matt..... I hate to say it but he said, after driving it home, that the Continentals made his F150 drive like a cadillac. Thank God his old 16 inch tires were cupped and feathered to hell!!!!
Have a great week guys....

He had the chromed steel rims with the 2357016 RT/S. I guess my old rims were very costly to replace but if a person is willing to shell out 700 bucks for stock rims and tires, why not dump a couple hundred more in and get aftermarket. Yep, I did good.
