    Those look damn good on your truck!

    You would have to have a machine shop cut a ring in there for the cap to clip into.

    Hey guys, what is the way you all recommend to have these mounted without scratching the wheels up? If there is a competent tire guy will they install the regular way without messing them up or is it not possible with certain mounting methods? Gonna wrap mine soon at town fair tire so wondering what to tell them.

    The shop should be smart enough to know that on a wheel like the F5, they should use back-coning or a pin plate when they put it on the balancing machine. Damage is usually done when they use the front coning method.

    Make them aware there are not center caps that they can use to hide their carelessness and you expect your mounted wheels to look as new as they did when you came in

    Also we want the 12x1.5 Extended lugs right? In comparing them to the stock ones the lugs seem skinny.

    Every wheel has something like this. The manager got back to me yesterday saying all they would do is send it to “their guy” to be repainted, and it would take a couple weeks. Wouldn’t even refund the money for my install. I contacted corporate right after and the manager called me today asking me to forward him a receipt for the wheels. Still waiting to hear back.

    Ouch!

    Having them powdercoat them is only appealing if you want to choose a custom color... if you're stuck on that original finish w/logos, then I'd insist they buy you a set.

    Hey guys, anyone paint the wheel weights since they are easy to see? I have ko2s 285s and apparently they took a good amount of weights to balance. About 2 rows of them on almost each wheel. Also, the alignment shop put a small gouge in my wheel! So basically.. what touch up paint to use for jet black F5?

    Battle scars are cool, just don't tell the chicks it's from Firestone
