Thank-you, I love it too!
These are the 17" Black Diamond Steel Wheels.
I bought them from another member on here in Marketplace.

Yep! I saw the price for the Ford Performance shocks that add 2" lift for $2100.
I was able to buy a set of take offs & have my tire shop do the installation for less than that all together! Plus, I do not want a 2" lift, just a factory Badlands Non-SAS stance!

I run the Ford Performance coilovers and love them.

BTW $2100 is MSRP, I believe I paid around $1500.

That is a much better deal than the $2100 on the Ford Performance site!
I was just not really wanting to go up to 35" tires, so I just loved the idea of getting around 1" lift with the NON-SAS Badlands shocks.

I run 33s.

I bought the shocks, stored them at the tire shop I use for everything, then got the install done 6 months later when I had the cash!

Is there a difference between the spring rates etc for a 2dr and 4door ? 4cyl vs 6cyl ?

I believe there is, as well as Manual vs Automatic Transmissions.
Likely due to weight?
I am pretty sure it has been addressed by folks on this site who are much more knowledgeable than I am. That is where I learned what I needed to know before buying take offs.
