Would love to see a white Maverick with those wheels.

How do you like the Front Runner rack on the Elevate Rails? Pretty solid connection between the legs and the rails? Front Runner has an early Black Friday sale right now and considering the 10" Tall legs so my Sentry CT hard roll-up can still open fully underneath.Little upgrade , I’ll attach a tent on that platform pretty soon , but meanwhile , this gives me a lot of space to attach things tofront runner rack and legs .

I remember the good old slotted disc wheels, I'm looking for those when my new Maverick comes inWhile I love the wheels and your build choice, I was hoping for somethig more traditional with the two tone. More black just isnt for me. I was pretty much over that when I sold my 74. I ordered a VB and I am pretty certain that I am going to have all the lower black plastic wrapped something in bold opposition to VB. Maybe throw in some matching stripes on some fenders or something. I just had a thought of red dirt. But those wheels are pretty much the best thing you can get on a Maverick. It fits it like slots or turbine/cyclone wheels on a 70s/80s truck.

There is some good wheels out there but between the weird modern backspacing and the insistence in aluminum not looking like aluminum, they all end up a lil off puting to me. If I went wider with 255s or 265s and could find one that used that width to dish the wheel a bit more on the backspacing and sandblasted the gold/bronze/black/grey/silver/white off of em. Then we may have some decent wheels.I remember the good old slotted disc wheels, I'm looking for those when my new Maverick comes in
What would the difference be between 65 or 70 on those tires. Also did you have a terrible drop in MPG with those tires?no lift yet , I have a 1.5 leveling kit that I'll install later, but so far no rubbing, really close though.
Love the way that upper body wrap looks but the side view mirrors kinda stick out not being black too. I might consider doing something like this some time. Great truck!Hi there ,
Here is TRASH CAT .... my custom 2022 iconic silver ford maverick ,XLT ,2.0 EcoBoost, FX4, tow package , sun roof ..
Inspired by the two-tone vintage trucks and rally trucks I wanted to build a unique-looking yet capable everyday truck, able to carry and tow everything I throw at it while being the perfect camping vehicle for the weekend PNW explorations. (Update soon on the rack and camp built)

I scrolled to find this answer. I am getting ready to put 245/70-17's on my Tremor. Glad to know you don't have any rub and hopefully I get the same result.Yeah. Surprisingly , there is no rubbing , even at full swing , it is really tight though. Like very very tight clearance
