what rims come on those trucks? I see a few lightnings to the left that look like they still got their shoes on. I would have yoinked the L rims instead. Cool trucks though. Too bad. I wonder if they will lower the sticker price?:D I guess they cant say they have HDs "rolling" off the lot anymore!:tongue:

I take it they don't come with wheel locks from the factory. With what it'll cost to replace those, I don't see them coming down on the price.

Ford's list price on HD wheels are $1400 a wheel... I'm sure you can get them a little less if you you know some one at the parts dept.

Damn...they must be insane. If I were gonna buy a HD I'd ask em to keep the wheels and knock 5k off the price...you can get HD replica wheels all day long on eBay for $1500 and up

I don't consider anything OEM ford any better than anything else on the market. Half the sh!t ford makes sucks....hell...make that 80%. What makes Fords any better than anyone elses? Just because they charge five times as much doesn't mean they are any better.

True, + I doubt Ford actually makes the wheels anyway. Ford most likely has their design made by one of the many wheel makers, and probably whichever one bid the lowest on the contract.
