I've done them on a 450 and will do it again awesome. I went with the shaved down ones so I didn't have to run the high ply tires something to think about. Had a buddy do a dodge at the same time and his rode like a log wagon he is now redoing his like mine now it rides great!

I would be scared to death hauling a heavy load with the rims shaved down.

Alcoa wheels have a ton of meat on them even shaved they are way thicker than any other 22 inch wheel period.

I purchased a set of 22.5 wheels with Hankook tires from American Force about 4 years ago. I have an 06 f550, was told they would fit no problem. When I went to bolt them on they rubbed BAD on the front fenders. When I called them they asked if I had them on correctly and said I was the only one they heard of with this problem. I ended up removing the fender flairs and cutting fenders back a little and reinstalling flairs. The rear wheels came with a toys- r -us centercap that had no way to index to center itself. When I called them again to ask about this problem they said to loosen everyother lug nut and install flange of center cap under half the lug nut. I ended up calling Alcoa and getting proper centercap which I feel should of come with the set originally in my opinion.I like the look , they ride a little stiff but if I was to purchase a set today I certainly would not buy from American Force again.

I have the american force on mine no problems at all. After you get them installed take your tuck to a tire shop that can balance and true them on the truck. That made a ton of difference in the ride.
