Minimum wheel size for Lightning?

[VTbuckeye]

Does anyone know yet what the minimum wheel size is for the lightning? Will 17inch f150 wheel (assuming they have the required load capacity) fit over the brakes or are 18s the smallest that will work. Lariat ER on order...Only 6 to 10 more months of building winter wheel packages on tire rack and discount tire....

Good question

Be careful and watch the weight ratings on the wheels. The f150 lightning is heavier than a normal f150 so is close to the super duty category for rims but with only a 6-bolt.

**Absolutely check the weight ratings of the wheels. Check each axle weight rating (GAWR front, GAWR rear), divide by two. That is the number that you need to exceed. What will it take to get a picture of the door stickers on one of these trucks (lariat or premium please).

I doubt that will come until the press starts getting production trucks or even maybe when customer deliveries start. Not sure if the pre-production trucks even have the stickers yet - I haven't paid close enough attention to that on the videos.
