Bolt Pattern change??
I tried to purchase a set of KMC-XD series rims for the 08 which is on it's way.
The tire shop informed me that FORD changed the bolt pattern on the 08's. They suggested holding off until I have a VIN because the rims may not work.
Is this true?
If it is, why change the bolt pattern after the production has already started?
Depending on build dates, the bolt pattern is different. Can anyone confirm this?
I called FORD but they could not answer the question either, said I needed a VIN.
