Newer Superduty Wheels on an 02 X

Hi all,

I think I have a question that many of you may know. I am interested in some of the 18x8 newer superduty wheels that I see on ebay all the time but I thought I read somewhere that I wil require wheel spacers to use them.

Does anyone know the details on this application?

Thanks

I put the 17" 08 f250 wheels on my x - it required a 2" spacer to have it fit correctly.

I would recommend Fred Goeske spacers - they are hub centric and highly recommended by most who have them.

The front is actually the wheels that rub because of the leafs. But it would be silly to widen the foot in the front and not in the back. IMO do all 4 corners - its the only way to go.

goto Wheeladapter.com Wheel Adapter Wheel Spacer Used Wheels New Rims Tires Gage Guage Gauge Wheal Wheals Adaptor wheelspacer wheelspacers stud studs billet bolt pattern custom parts part titanium fabrication aluminum rims rim part parts titanium coating put in for a custom quote...he will get back to you super fast. They make everything custom to order. He knows his ****.

As for the cost - not really sure what they are new...I was able to catch a member here selliing all 4 for $150 - I know I got a deal.....
If I was to throw out a number...I would say $600 for a set of 4.
