Aftermarket Wheels

Will the tpms parts on the standard wheels work on my fuel trophy wheels I plan on putting on when I get my truck?

They will. The tire shop will just need to remove the sensor with a torx bit and attach it to a new sensor stem. Stem's should be $5 each or less. Most TPMS sensors are pretty universal with their stems and hardware these days.

Got mine put on at discount tire. They were able to reuse the old TPMS sensors so I saved a little money there.

The wheel trim matches truck trim perfectly.

Wheels are + 6 offset.

I had trouble finding lugs. These were super cheap but great quality. Paint did not chip off at all with install.

Bought the Wheels from Mr. Wheeldeal. $879 including tax and shipping. Shipping only took 5 days from the day I ordered.

Did you have to supply any additional parts for the tpms or did the parts off your stock wheels work?

I'm confused I think. The stems off stock wheels won't fit?

Stems off stock wheels will work. However if they are damaged when removing your stock tire off the wheel you may have to pay extra for a new sensor. Sometimes you get lucky and none of the sensors are damaged and they just get moved over to your new wheels.

You will need new lugs just FYI. I have a link to the ones I used above. They were pretty cheap but were good quality and look good imo.

Ya customwheels4u told me about the lugs also. And Thanks for the info!

The sensor is attached to the stem via torx screw. Do not re-use the rubber stem.

Remove D from C and install on a new set of C

Oh ok. thanks for info!

So not sure what to do at this point, I would like to go with the Method NV or 310 Con 6. Sounds like if I go with a 17" I will lose some offset and maybe stick out a little further than I would like. If I go with the 18" I can get closer to stock stance. Will I lose that much off-roading capability going to an 18" wheel? I do desert quite often but it's to get where me and my dirt bike need to go. Lucerne/Johnson Valley, CalCity/Rainbow Basin areas.

In regards to tires, I'm looking at Toyo R/T or Nitto RidgeGrappler. Anyone far and apart better than the other? Was leaning towards Toyo. Appreciate any and all input. Thanks.

I currently have the Nitto RidgeGrappler on my Raptor and it is NIGHT AND DAY BETTER than the Toyo R/T's I took off. Nitto is a much quieter and smoother riding tire. Great traction as well!

Here is the Nitto Ridge Grappler

Just remember the 18x9 +18 is still a full 22mm more aggressive. The sidewall difference is much. Most guys prefer the most sidewall possible but a 1/2" reduction won't kill you.

As for tires they both great. I have RT's and they are wearing super well. The Nitto's have been very well reviewed as well. I think the compounds are very similar seeing as Nitto and Toyo are the same company and this each of their hybrid offerings.. I would just go for what you like the looks of more.
