Anyone using Vision Heavy Hauler 19.5" wheels?
 
Need new wheels for the '06 F-350 SRW and came across these 19.5 Vision Heavy Hauler wheels rated at 4500#.

Vision Wheel

Thinking of mounting Michelin XZE 245/70-19.5 XDS 16pr tires.

We pull a 14k# Toy Hauler.

Anyone using these wheels or tires?

Never run them, but I love when companies make these claims....



You can now increase your safety factor, mileage rating and carrying capacity by upgrading to a set of 19.5" wheel/tire combination on your 3/4 ton and 1 ton truck

I didnt know they sent out larger brakes and axles and different gears with the wheels...

Wonder if you get a certificate stating what your NEW capacities are? NHTSA approved?

The reason I ask is that 3 of the 4 original OEM 20" Ford wheels on my '06 F-350 have cracked. 2 fronts and 1 rear. First one was a few years ago before I towed the trailer. I've found ALOT of these 20" wheels have cracked like in the picture below and should have never been put on the truck IMHO. These wheels came as part of the "chrome" package on some Lariets in 2006. These wheels are a safety issue and just looking to END the problem.
