They look extremely good!


I would buy the same today, but I'm just not real excited about running spacers on my Excursion though.

Welcome to the "Club"

Very nice. Welcome to the "OEM 20 Club"!!!

Suggestion? (Take it or leave it ) Get another set of closed caps and put them on front. I did not like the way the 4X4 lockouts do not match up with the open caps of the OEM 20s.

Nice Excursion. I'm hoping to join the "OEM 20 Club" ASAP... Few questions... Is your X 'stock-height'? Where did you get your 20's wheels, tires, AND spacers from?

Thanks for your help...

71-4R3Sons... You're right about the closed caps! I will be doing the same...

The swap raised the height about 2 inches. I bought all my stuff on ebay separately. It cost me $1000 for the rims $600 for the tires and $300 for the spaces.

Yep... "stock" up front.

Wheels and tires were "takeoffs" from ebay... same with the extra caps.

Spacers from Fred at wheelspacers.com

Do a "search" regarding OEM 20s and you'll find alot of stuff... also look at FTE member high1... he was one of the first to do the swap with the correct spacers.

Must you do the spacers, or can you just do the wheel swap?

Yes you must do the spacers. If not the tires will rub when turning. They already rub a litte at full turn.

I have some used(6,000 miles) 275-65-20 Nitto Terra Grapplers that I can't seem to sell. so I guess I will have to buy a Ex and do the 20" swap. Man those look good.

Thanks. I'm really happy with the way they look.
