pro comp 7069 flat blacks
Im looking for new wheels for my 2004 XLT, and saw pro comps 7069 flat blacks. Anybody running the 15x10s? Gonna wrap some 33s around them. Thanks.

alright so im kinda (completely) new to the tire wheel deal. I love the pro comp 7069 look (the bullet hole style) but i was told that the offset on the 15x10s with 33 12.50s would stick out WAY to far. I want my tires to stick out of the wheelwell some, but how far would they stick out? I'd love some black rims. needing help here. Thanks
Hopefully I will be ordering a set of those this week !! Along with the BL, then I just gotta wait for the 33" KM2's to come off back order so I can get some tires. Or find a good deal on the Toyo's. If you get them on there soon post up some pictures. would love to see them on a truck (though I'd rather mine was 1st LOL)
33's on 15x10's with a 3" BL should not rub at all. I just dont know about the back spacing and offset on these specific wheels. I'm pretty sure they were designed with for the jeep guys and it's just luck that we have the same bolt pattern.
all this back and forth blahblahblah on backspacing is easily cured by looking at the wheel manufacturer's website and the wheel you're after....take a look at the specs.
10" wide with even 4" backspace(sucked in for a 10") is not gonna work well on a non-lifted truck with 12.50 tires. I don't suggest it. Stick with 8's and 3.50-4.00" backspace. 8 w/4" backspace and 12.50's on a 98+ will put the tire about an inch outside a non-flared truck and darn near level with the flare on a flared truck.
And yes, 15x10's with a normal 15x10 backspace(3.5-4") and 33x12.50's should be just fine with a bodylift. Normal trimming of the valence is suggested but not required.

wrong. i ran that setup for quite a while before i lifted my truck.
well I got the procomp with 33x12.5 KM2s and the PA 3' BL on this weekend!! Wheels look bad a$$.. Couldn't take any pictures because of all the rain but hopefully will get some pics this afternoon after work and get them up tonight !

NICE!! Thanks big for the pictures. Was thinking that the 15x10s on the rims would stick out WAY too far. They look really good. What size were your stock rims? I ask this because i was wondering if you had any problems fitting the rims over your brake calipers.
Well to make a short answer long, I think the stock wheels were supposed to be 16's. I bought the truck used and it had 15inch wheels on it but inside the door says 16's and I think all other Edges came with 16's. But I stuck with the 15's and they fit great !! And I have the sticky weights on the inside to balance it and they clear too. When I got the wheels I actually put one of just the wheels on there to make sure everything cleared. A warning if you do that with a 15x10 and no tire on it, it WILL look WAY to wide !! I was really worried after I did that, but once I had the tires mounted they look great.

Thanks for the info. I dont have flares, so they may stick out a little further (or look like they do). But hey, a good excuse for fender flares..hehehe
