North Carolina WTB Ecoboost Wheels PP or HPP

[XFactor7889]

I'm interested in buying a set of 18+ ecoboost performance package wheels OR the HPP handling package wheels. I don't typically see many for sale, but I don't know if that's simply because most assume no one is interested. In any case, I don't care about tires, just want wheels in great shape. If you're willing to part with yours, let me know. Thanks!

Lmr sells a HP clone for 1000 or so. Vastly lighter to boot.

Thanks. It's on my list, I just am hesitant because of the center caps. I've seen mixed reviews about the oem center caps fitting, and I really want that pony to remain. I'm also just planning to use this set for the winter, so if I could find a cheaper set, that would be even better.

I have been thinking of selling my Ford OEM Dark Stainless daily wheels with Pirelli A/S tires. Then using my track wheels as daily, and getting another set for track days.

These would be a good daily wheel/tire as well as perform well in NC all year round.

They are square set of 8.5x19 with 255/40 tires. Probably 8/32" tread, like new.

I think they would look good on a purple car. Here is the only photo I had on hand, but I can get you some better ones.

I appreciate the thought! And I agree on the color; a gunmetal grey is exactly what I've been thinking. I just happen to really like the Y-spoke styles that are out there, which is why I've narrowed it down to the PP and HPP wheels. My plan for my summer wheels is the Apex EC-7. (Truthfully, it was only in typing this response that it occurred to me that all these wheels have the Y-spoke patterns. I guess I've got a very specific taste ) Thanks again, though!

Variety is good. If every set looked the same, life be boring.

Did the Eco's come with specific performance pack wheels or are they the same as the GT PP1 wheels? Or are you looking for the PP2 wheels? I have a set of PP1 wheels in Pinehurst, NC that I have been considering selling.

They did get a unique wheel beginning in 2018. It's a matte black finish, Y-spoke design. I don't think I want the PP2 wheels because I'm not fond of the poke they have. That's why I like the HPP Handling Package wheels, because they're a little smaller. Mine is actually a PP1, so I'm looking for a different wheel style. Appreciate the response!

This is the 2018+ EB PP 19” rim you’re seeking. They were “squared” (all same size, which makes it better for tire rotations). 2018 was the first year for this rim. The below is an online image for reference:

I have the same factory rims on my 2018.

and you’re correct, they don’t come up for sale very often at all. I’ve seen them on eBay (singles) as high as $315 each.

Back up for the OP….

Thanks for sharing that pic. I actually had a set on my 15 EB before getting my GT. It was the only set I've ever seen someone sell and it was an older man that preferred chrome wheels. I had to sell the original wheels when I moved, otherwise I absolutely would've kept them and put them on the GT immediately.

I appreciate everyone's responses. Now that they're back in stock and my search for the EB wheels has proven futile, I'll be ordering the Apex EC-7s in the next week or so. Thanks for all the help and suggestions!
