Didn't want to mess with the suspension so I had to stick with 275/60R20's, so far I'm a huge fan of the setup!! The color is Black Machined w/ Dark Tint Finish, it looks bronze in some light, grey in other and black at night.

Always looks good to have black rims on a white truck. I hate the Lightning badging on the bed, mine won't 10 minutes on my truck once it hits my driveway. i'll have the heat gun, fishing line, and goo gone waiting to rip it off. Did you sell the original rims and tires?

Nah I still have them, probably just going to leave them in the corner of my trailer, I can't imagine they're worth much plus I guess I can put them back on in a pinch. I'm gonna try to to take the center caps off the stock rims and put the black Ford logo on the fuel rims.

I dont mind the Lightning badge. It's one of like 6 items that set it apart from an ICE F-150 lol

I have the Fuel Blitz wheels in this same finish. Yeah they’re like anodized satin black until the right light hits them and suddenly they’re bronze. Had them on a silver Expedition and didn’t care for the bronze notes with the silver paint, but loved the wheels anyway. They’re 18’s so I may use them as an off-road set for my Lightning. Actually I’d really like to, but not sure how well they’ll match up to the Azure Gray paint I’ve selected.

these look great. do you have an idea on the efficiency with these?
There doesn't seem to be a significant impact, but my mi/kwh are always all over the place so I'm ranging between 2.7-1.9 after the swap depending on my speed and acceleration. I'll have a better idea after a month or so where I can compare longer term numbers.

Any idea of the range differential after all this time?
I was looking at Fuel rims this afternoon and contemplating making the change

Tbh, I can’t give a great MPK differential. I never drove the truck with the stock wheels (I was out of the country when we first got it, and wifey put these on for me before I got home). Then someone stole my stock wheel/tire combo.

I can tell you, with my heavy footed driving, I tend to get somewhere between 1.7-1.9 miles per kilowatt. Hopefully that helps.
