Was anyone offered a different rim option when ordering?

[Mite-o-Dan]

I ordered early on, June 10th, and was never given options on my rims. Got an XLT Hybrid. The biggest reason I got an XLT was because of the God awful "rims" on the base model.
I just saw the 16 August video of the accessories that will be offered and nearly all the trucks have black rims. On most, especially the Cyber Orange which I bought, it looks great. When I look at my order sheet, tires and rims aren't even mentioned. I read in another post that Ford Delearships didn't even know how to add the black rim option early on. Is that true?

There is no wheel option for the XLT build. Only for Lariay and 4wd builds.

I think the XLT wheels are sharp. Hate all the Lariay choices which is largely what kept me to XLT.

Those wheels are gunmetal grey.

I really liked the XLT wheels and went with XLT Lux. Same for interior colors. However I want all the bells and whistles so I upgraded to Lariat Lux.

I do not like the wheels Lariat comes with but aftermarket has tons of choices. Since I don't have to upgrade the sound with the Lariat Lux I will have some budget to upgrade the wheels down the road instead.

living in New England, I have to buy winter wheels and tires anyway. Don't want to buy two sets of wheels just to ditch the machined Lariat wheels.
Have to say that I was hesitant about the blue/brown interior too, even though I much prefer pleather over cloth.

Lucky for me I don't have to get snow tires in the PNW. If we get snow everything is pretty much shut down. I could actually get around on my Focus fairly well so I bet the Mav would be better since higher ride height.

Yeah I actually like the blue gray orange xlt combo more than strange brown/blue and bronze interior. My Mav is Alto Blue so it should look okay with brown. My concern with the cloth is keeping it clean. The pleather in my Focus is very easy to clean.

My car is almost 8 years old and it looks new without any damage. Only damage I have is center armrest is cracked cause I love resting my right hand on it.
