Hey all,
So after a weekend of working on a the Mountaineer and having to use a sledge hammer to get the rear wheel off I've decided to consider getting new wheels rather than living with the corroded and now chipped factory style. I really like the factory style but after comparing costs, it's going to be the same if not less for aftermarket ones. I'm looking for something along the lines of the following:
But am open to suggestions. I know there was a thread on here for a similar baja style only much cheaper but couldn't find it. My truck looks exactly like this with those exact rims on it currently
I'm also considering taking off the factory running boards and replacing them with aftermarket tube steps. I can't decide if i like the way a black wheel would look or if i should go with something a little brighter. I'm leaning more towards black because i think those steps would go better with the color of the truck currently.
Any feedback you offer would be greatly appreciated.
