You say you have a 2018 Sport but your profile shows 2015 Limited. Do you have both?Looking at Wheel Options for my 2018 Sport. Anyone running F-150 20" Wheels on their Explorer?
I don't know what size/type of aftermarket wheels/tires you are talking about, but good quality 18"-22" rims and tires can easily run $2-5K or more which isn't cheap for most people. Even the cheap chinese junk will set you back $1,200-1,500 or more. The only "cheap" aftermarket wheels I've seen are the white wagon wheels, but they have very limited sizes/applications.Aftermarket wheels have gotten so cheap that I wouldn’t bother with spacers and adapters. In the end, you still end up running a factory wheel.
Yes, there are a lot of 18-20" aftermarket wheels that can be had for less than $500/rim. You can buy cheap gravity cast aftermarket 18s for as little as $100/rim and you can get cheap gravity cast aftermarket 20s for as little as $150/rim give or take. Add in tires and a set is going to cost a grand or more quickly for the cheapest of the cheap of aftermarket rims/tires. If you want better quality pressure cast, rotary forged or forged aftermarket wheels that are more durable, you are going to pay more. Add in a quality tire and you are going to quickly approach or exceed $2K for a set.Most 18s and 20s can be had for much less than $500 a wheel. Compare them to used aftermarket wheel/tire combo because that’s what factory take off are, used. Most clean factory wheels with good, serviceable tires aren’t cheap.
Maybe to some and from a cursory glance, but to me, they are completely different styles of wheels - one is an 8-spoke and the other is a 10 spoke (actually a split/open 5-spoke design).Looks good but the wheels are very similar to the "regular" Limited 16+ 20" wheels
Just depends on what one persons idea of cheap is compared to another...Oh and just to add about using factory wheels as an upgrade as factory take offs can be found cheap.....

I may have to come down your way to shop for factory takeoffs then ;-). Best I can find locally and on the web is not what I would consider "cheap".Usually a set of lightly used set of factory wheels and tires can be had for less than the price of the 4 tires brand new. The highest option factory wheels might catch a premium though.
