I put a set of Harley 18" rims on my 2000 Excursion. The rims came off an 04 F350. Just to let everyone know, the lug nuts are different thread; leave it to Ford. The original lugs and center caps fit and look good. Anyone know if Ford made an 18" steel spare rim for 99-04?

I think even the trucks equipped with the 18's had a 16" spare. the tire size is different on the OEM 18's but is still the same height as the stock 265's that are spooned onto the 16's.

What size tire did you go with?

 

Tires are Michelin 275/65/18. The height is 32.1". I can get close with a 265/75/16.

 

I'am looking at the same set of wheels and tires.
265/75/16 are 30 inch and 275/65/18 are 32 high,any problems with them on stock suspension?
Thanks

 

Call me silly, for my spare, I just bought an extra 18" rim and a matching tire. It's tight in the factory location, but it fit...

That way, if I need to change a spare, the truck will look the same.

 

32"s will be no problem on a stock 4X4 suspension.


Now I'm jealous! I wish I could find a nice '04 Lariat rim for a reasonable price for my spare, pretty sure the 35" will fit in the spare location with the bottom pad removed.

 

Holy thread resurrection.
