How did they turn out? We're they in good shape?

Not to bad at all. Definitely in good shape. One wheel was perfect, one was scratched pretty good. Not "hit the curb" scratched, more like "not careful during tire demount" kinda scratch. The other two had road wear. Definitely used, but most, if not all the blemishes are on the beauty ring. I'll be getting the real bead locks from Ford, so it doesn't matter to much.

I'll soon have some good used 2012 wheels up for grabs for people looking for a second spare and such. Lol...

Thanks for the heads up!

Not that big of a deal but only had her for a week and did a small creek crossing.

Dry it off with Adams detail spray. Amazing product.

My truck is wrapped in a satin finish so I can't use anything that leaves a shine.

I wipe it down with rubbing alcohol and water. I just need to buy another bottle of alcohol.

let my fingers do the walking

Had my new love for a few weeks now and after reading and rereading billions of posts on FRF I've decided to place a few orders for my sweetie - by the way, her name is Bettie (as in Bettie Boop - haven't found the perfect fuzzy dice yet but I see a pair in my future - :rofl:). Yes I know for some of the youngin's on the site you may not appreciate the reference to Bettie Boop (can you say Google) but who better to sit next to us in our trucks while we smash around the back woods!! :wink: This is actually Bettie II - the first was my one other extravagant fun purchases - a '67 Lincoln with only 33,000 original miles - gotta love suicide doors - sorry I digress - back to Raptor Land!

Ordered a Diamondback HD, LowPro Cab Guard, boxes, & bike racks for the Bettie from my new favorite vendor! Morrie at Bak Factory Outlet really rocks it!! Came in with the best prices (I quoted several) and turned that order around same day even though he was slammed. Great communication and follow up and I like the whole website setup to show your orders!

Then I got busy and ordered a Pop n Lock, EZdown, Fumoto drain and KC Lites under hood lights from Amazon. Then off to Truck Security to order Jimmie Jammers for each door and tail gate and the Gate Keeper. Trying to frustrate the bad guys at least a little! :deal:

Now I wait patiently for the guys in the brown suits to come to the door.......:drool2:

Thanks for all the great info on this site guys, make's it much easier to find quality vendors and get real first hand reviews on gear!
