I did not see a more appropriate board for this, so here goes.. And I'm sure the OT will put me in my place if it is not!

Going out on a limb here, looking for a set of factory 2014 Ford 20" chrome wheels for my F-150; interested in new take off's or sets with extremely low mileage and no blemishes.

I would rather give my money to a TD member, then someone on another site.

Picture below.

eBay.

Or, surprisingly, Amazon.

I bought that exact set off Craigslist locally to take the tires off for my Yukon. Then sold the wheels for more than I paid.

And ebay isn't that expensive.

I avoid Craig's List like the plague... And eBay is outrageous.

This set of wheels is a $950 option at vehicle purchase, eBay is nearly $2k AND everything has to be bought in pieces (wheels, center caps, lug nuts, all separately) unless someone has them sitting around.

F-150 Forums. They have those sets for sale all the time.

That's where I was headed next... But, was hoping to help a TD brother out first.

good luck, I have those on mine. New they are $1000 a piece. I have seen them for sale before but the cheapest I have seen is 1500 for 4 rims only.

I had those on my old truck. The "chrome" on that wheel is more like a heavy duty aluminum foil over a steel wheel. That shite scratches if you look at it wrong. It is a good looking wheel though

call the ford dealership and find out for yourself. Yea, used ones can be found, but new replacement ones from the dealer are very expensive.

You're calling the wrong dealerships Call Tasca Ford and see if you still think they're $1000 a piece new.

There's a reason they're called Stealerships on the Jeep forums I frequent. They think anything OEM is worth more, and charge you out the nose for it. One guy was looking for some basic little body part. I think it was fender flares. They wanted something like $300 for a set, and wouldn't sell him just whatever side he needed. He ended up paying less for a set of aftermarket, nicer flares, that were steel, instead of the flimsy plastic ones that were OEM.

JMO but those are the ugliest premium wheels that ford used on the 09-14 models


I had the aluminum 20's on my lariat because I hated the look of those


It's like a chrome plastic over a steel wheel anyway, but whatever floats your boat

$400 a rim from Ford Parts online... Not great, but not $1k a wheel.

You are correct sir... They are by no means the best looking wheels that ford has ever put on a truck.

That said, I have never been able to put aftermarket wheels on any of my vehicles -- it suits me fine to stay correct for that model / package / options available for that vehicle.

That, and I don't like the 17's I have now.

Check out Hendry's. It's just east of Houston. I traded my used 65K mile tires and 18" rims for brand new 20" f150 takeoffs wrapped in Pirelli's with less than 100 miles on them for $850. I couldn't have even bought the tires alone for that price. give them a call and see what they've got
