Mford514 - Looks great. The odds of getting the Ford OEM 20's for a reasonable price is near zero. Aftermarket solutions for 20's are more affordable with more choices.

I did the same and purchased aftermarket wheels recently. They are MRR Design HR4 20x9 35 offset with center bore machined/enlarged to Ford center bore spec for hubcentric fit (machined face/black background). I haven't figured out how to post pics.

Unable to open a Photobucket account, something is wrong on their website maybe.

got the mtm look goin on.

mtm = made to manage software from what I remember (m2m).

But certainly a road going SUV look, not offroad style, which resembles actual usage being dry/rainy/snowy roads and occassional easy Jeep trails at my sister's ranch and friend's ranch.

It's a bit of a Range Rover OEM 10 spoke design with some extra depth. The finish is machined with black background (which matches the Eddie Baur roof rack), easy to keep clean.

G'day, how are you liking the nexen tyres?

Too early for proper review, but I have a few hundred miles on dry and wet roads, traction is good.

Noise levels are good for a 45 series tire (275/45/20). A bit more small bump harshness than I prefer otherwise comfort is fair to good. Load rating and treadwear numbers are high so I expect treadlife to be good.

M&S rated for those in CA (chain controls), I haven't driven in snow yet.

Thanks Mford514 for your comments. Since my Explorer is Eddie Bauer, I wanted to match the trim of the side view of the vehicle includes lots of black trim (window frames, mirror details, rack ends, floorboard rubber) and a satin silver finish on the roof rack. So I picked a machined finish silver wheel with black background.

I did chrome years ago on my Hummer (Moto Metal 951's) with Nitto Terra Grabbler tires, it looked good on that bling machine.

Bumping it up in case somebody has installed new wheels over the holidays....
