The ones in your pic don’t look OEM, and could just be eye-candy. BTDT and had to replace them all after several cracked wheels. :):) Good tip! You're right, they are pretty wheels the prior owner put on and are only rated at 2200 lbs each. Good thing we have the original factory wheels also. The tires are good but we will be sure to switch out the wheels before our next big trip. Thanks!Re: Need Accessories Advice Re: Need Accessories AdviceI may have figured the picture thing out.Re: Need Accessories AdviceLOL! Newbies;)Re: I joined the club!Congrats! We just picked up our first TC this past Saturday. We live in central OH and have been to Mike Jones RV, they were super nice. We purchased used so we went where the camper was, otherwise we would have purchased from them as well. Happy camping to you! Since we are truck camping neighbors and both newbies maybe we will see you around camping. :)Re: Need Accessories AdviceThanks all for the advice! We brought home our new camper on Saturday. We ended up holding off on suspension mods until after our trip home. We purchased Torklift FastGuns, the Lance plug and a 48" hitch extension. We found the truck squats a bit. The handling is pretty good. We are looking at Firestone airbags to take care of the squat.Re: Need Accessories Advice jimh425 wrote: I think this qualifies as a truck camper site. :) At least, I think those things on the back of our trucks in many of our signatures are truck campers. ;) That was my thought. ?? Didn't know if I was missing something.Need Accessories AdviceHi All, I'm new here. My husband and I bought our 2010 F-350 dually last year with the intention of being prepared for a truck camper when the right one came along. We think we may have found it!! :) But we need advice on outfitting our truck with the right accessories. Think airbags, springs, sway control, tie downs, turnbuckles, extension hitch...help! The camper we are looking at is a 2013 Lance 1191. We will be within but pushing our GVWR. We intend to sometimes tow a boat with a 500 lb tongue weight. Suggestions please! Thanks! Rob and Carrie
