I have decided to change my factory wheels on my 2011 F-250 SRW truck...I am going to go with 19.5 rims and tires.

Do anybody have any experience with these wheels ?

Thanks for any input

Well I got them and installed them yesterday...what a hassle but its done now.Wasted 2 days trying to find valve stems that would accept the new TPMS because the brand new Fomoco ones I bought where to small for the hole in the Vision rims,so I just put standard stems and Ill hit the reset button when I start the truck.I also put on a new set of brakes front and rear...Im done with this truck for now we have one more trip down to Nashville then I move the whole thing across the street to the D.O.T.yard that I work in and it becomes my snow shack for the long winter this way I have a place to sleep when the idiots in the state capitol take us hostage because it might snow more than 4 inches and wont allow us guys to go home.

Air bags next spring...

I only ran caps on the rear.

Just remember to check the torque on your lug nuts following a tire change after the first 50, 100, and 150 miles(approx).

I ran them for 8 years on my previous truck a SRW with no issues. You do need to use different lug nuts.

You need tapered lugs verses the flat face OEM's.

I have them on my 2013 chevy, bolt pattern is slightly different. I have about 6,000 miles on them so far no issues.
