2024 OB coming in next month. Hard time finding decent steel wheels in 18” or 17”. Every aftermarket is pushing alloy. Must be stronger demand. My belief steel is stronger, better bead, less expensive to buy/replace.
Looking to possibly powder coat body color and mount 17 x 7.5 OEM steelIes. My understanding they are same as an OB
6 x 139.7. Should mount on OB without any issue…..
Been in contact with Ford district service rep to check on potential warranty concerns or suspension/brake issues. Unfortunately rep toes the corporate line. ..references operators manual and list of items that could affect warranty.
Does anyone have knowledge of potential issues with brakes or suspension when mounting 17 x 17.5 steel on an 18” OB? turning radius should not be an issue not going with wide base.
Any aftermarket that offers steel wheels that don’t look like they came off of a 1976 GMC pick up?
Don’t want bling. Just a good Utility look.
