Hi everyone, have on 06 f150 XL with the 7 lug wheels. Just wondering if anyone has had any luck finding aftermarket wheels for the new heavy duty 7 lug Ford wheels. Haven't been able to locate anything yet.
thanks, Chris
A google search
Ford has used that bastard 7 lug design in the past so I would tend to think that there is some out there but selection is likely to be very limited because Ford is the only one wver to use it.

Bastard is a swear word. Did using it make you feel better?
You must really be a hypocrite.
Can you give a cite on that? I've never heard of a 7-lug design before -- at least not on a half-ton truck. I've seen lots of 5-, 6- and 8-lug designs, but I can't recall ever seeing a wheel with 7 lugs. To be sure, I have't even seen a new F150 with 7 lugs, so I have to look more closely ...
Again you show your ignorance. "Bastard" is not a swear word. Look it up if you own a dictionary. I doubt you will find the word in a Marvel comic book.
"Ford took the aero styling to its conclusion for 1997 with an extremely round nose on the new F-series. The "Super Duty" F series did not yet exist, so an F-250 was offered which was an F-150 with heavier duty axles and suspension, along with odd 7 lug wheels. With the arrival of the Super Duty, this F-250 "light duty" was offered as the "7700" package for the F-150 (noted on the tailgate emblem)."
Get in touch with the folks at :
the site is very new, but ask them to see what they can find for you. I've worked with Brad there on the custom coddington wheels for my thunderbird sc, as well as some basic steel wheels and tires I'm getting for my rusty Ford Ranger winterbeater that they shipped on Monday.
Prices are competitive and if it's available he can find it. Great service.
