JoshA's 2015 F150 Mild Build

So I have not installed the damn icons yet due to being busy with work, but with the rain I may be able to sneak into the shop and knock it out.

I have been looking for 20x10 Welds for my truck (dunes preferred) and I've had no luck. I'm tempted to also custom order some forces.

Maybe the SS8 style, but with 6 lug. Any recommendations?
 
So after some research I found out 12's will not fit these new trucks without major trimming even if I were to crank the coilovers.

I've been looking for 10's and I didn't want to spend money on forces for x10's so I've been looking for welds. I ended up getting a deal on some brand new (still in boxes) 20x10 Weld Velocity's.



I haven't decided on tire yet, but finally some progress. Truck's front end will be painted February 1st as well. I'm hoping to try and knock out the leveling kit if I can get away from work this weekend.
 
I wanted to gather everyone's opinions on tires. I'm looking for 295/55/20 (33x12.5) sizes for my 20x10 welds.

Currently I have it between MTZ's, Trail Grapplers, and Cooper STT Pro's. They're all fairly similar in price, but wanted to see what everyone thought or any other recommendations for an M/T tire. Thanks.

would go Trails, MTZ, Coopers in that order IMO Trails are nice tires.
 
I had cooper STT and nitto trails. liked the coopers better. they were quieter and seemed to last longer. out of all the MT tires I've had, Toyo Open Country MT is still my favorite. From experience- Toyo MT > Cooper STT > Nitto Trails
 
Well I finally installed the Icon Stage V kit. These fords are pretty easy to install the kit and take everything apart.

Truck has about .5" rake now which will change as I plan on cranking the coilovers until it's level. Icon Stage V kit includes 2.5 resi coilovers with compression control, 2.5 resi piggybacks, and uniball uca's.

I'll also be installing the Welds this week if all goes as planned and front grille will be getting painted next week. Here are a few pics after I did a quick wash on the truck:






 
Thanks dude. I've been pretty impressed so far. It needs an alignment so I'm sure it'll feel much better after that as well.

crank the little bit and level it off and drive it a few days or some miles to let them settle a small bit before aligning. It will save you an alignment trip in the near future.

Pretty good idea. I noticed the drivers side is lower than the passenger as well so I'm going to try to even them out. Thanks man!
 
Damn, I never saw this till now. Super jelly of the new truck and of the brand new work truck lol. Can't wait to see it CM'd with the Welds.
