Oem Rim Question ?????
I have a good deal on OEM 17" x 7.5" 135mm steel rims off a 2005 4x2.
Will they fit my 2005 XLT S_Crew 4x4 ???
I am thinking of powder coating them and running Cooper M&S tires for winter months only.
Is there any difference between steel or alloy besides the weight ????

yes, they'll fit.
the rims from any 04-08 (and 09) truck will fit any other F-150/Mark LT/Expedition/Navigator in those years
the low end rims are steel, then chrome clad...and finally you get alloy for the higher trims...steel being heaviest and gets progressively lighter (sorta depending on rim size)
how much they asking?

Here some pic's .Had Cooper 255/60/R17 M+S tires mounted and balanced hours before small snow storm here in the North East.They perform well in 2 or 4 wheel drive. I was not happy with the Silver balance weights on the out side but I have to remember they are only Winter rims & Tires (Nothing Some Black Touch-Up Paint cant handle). The total for all four rims and tires has cost me a whopping $265.00 .
