Looks good. I thought about getting a set of those wheels for my Toyos so I could use the Forgelines for street tires

I love them! Can't wait to try out the tires. They came with an instructional cd on how to use the tpms tool and even have polished valve stems and caps!
Awesome! Thanks Joe.

I really like the look, the quality seems great, BUT.....
I can't get the TPMS sensors to train. I got the left front to register once then right front wouldn't go. I've tried numerous times and now no go on even left front. Not sure what to do next. Any thoughts? The warning light has not lit, about to go for a spin and see what happens.

I think you need a tool to retrain the sensors.

The light will come on eventually, press reset and it goes away until you start the car again... When doing the training, make sure the arrow is pointing at the tire and hold the remote thing at different spots on the tire even though the sensors are supposed to be mounted opposite of the valve stems...

Looks great! I really like those rims, am getting my new rubbber mounted on new rims as well, was going to go with those but as much as I like them they didn't suit the blue :(
I am assuming you have read this, if they are new sensors you may have to turn them on by bleeding a few pounds and re-inflating.

+1 on the checking diameter. I beleive the stock wheels and his new wheels are a little different inside diameter.
I was going to put my cobra set on the black chrome wheels I sold Joe and the diameter on the FR's was a little larger.

They are 2.5 inches. My stock stock SVT caps fit them just fine. If you have a set that will fit let me know what you want for them. Are they the silver cobra on black background?

The ones you tried were stock sized caps? These amy be a different manufacturer than the ones you had, my stock caps fit just fine.
Thanks for all the compliments, I reall love them. They have been turning heads for sure!

I have not read this thanks I will try that! One thing I notice is that the Ford instructions say to hold the training tool 180 degrees from the valve stem. The instruction video that came with the wheels says hold it at the stem. I guess it depends on where the sensor is placed.

Yes....they were the stock size. If your SVT caps fit fine, then the cobra ones should fit fine also.

Well it was worth a try VK thanks. Still one sensor that won't train. Looks like your right MC. :banghead:
I'm beginning to think the Mod Gods are angry with me. First the fuel door, then this TPMS problem and now when I went out to try the fix for the sensor I noticed that my stub antennae must have broken off while cruising yesterday. :doh2:
It was just a cheap one from O'Reilly's fortunately. I'd been meaning to replace it with a nice billet one anyway but I think I'll wait and see how the other issues work out before I invest in anymore mods. For now I just put the stock back on. It looks huge to me now!

Mine are 2.5" also.
Are you not going to use your SVT caps on them?
Mine look similar to this....

I have all 4 from my track car.
I don't use them because they would come off at the track.
They have never been installed.
You can have all 4 for $20 if you want them.
I can get a pic if you like.

A pic would be great but for $20 bucks I'll just take 'em! PM me an address for a check or paypal ID and I'll send you the money. Thanks TG!
