Why spacers are needed for the F-150 Raptor
The Raptor has a wider chassis than regular F-150 models. Although this wheel set matches the bolt pattern and hub diameter exactly, the original 42 mm ET value causes the wheel to sit visually too far inside the wheel arch. For correct fitment - both technically and aesthetically - a spacer of approximately 44 mm is required. This brings the effective ET value back to approximately ET -2.45, as on the original Raptor wheels.
Spacers are not included with this set, and their use is entirely at your own risk. Always ensure professional installation with wheel bolts of the correct length. This helps prevent imbalance or damage to the suspension system.
The ultimate lightweight upgrade for every off-road challenge
Thanks to the low weight of just 8.2 kg per wheel, you will immediately notice a difference in acceleration, braking behavior, and steering precision. Less weight means less strain on your suspension and damping, resulting in smoother handling - both on asphalt and off-road. The carbon construction also noticeably dampens more vibrations, road noise, and impacts, significantly increasing ride comfort, even on rough terrain.
Built on aerospace technology
BST manufactures these wheels according to the same principles used in Formula 1 and the aerospace industry. Each wheel is ISO 9001:2015 certified and features a unique serial number for quality control and traceability. The advanced resin technology and hollow-spoke construction make this wheel resistant to extreme forces and temperatures - without the risk of cracking or deformation.
An investment in durability and performance
The BST Tuff TEK wheel set is up to 13 times stronger than aluminum and offers exceptional impact and heat resistance. The protective epoxy coating helps you easily repair scratches or minor curb damage without structural damage. With a load capacity of 862 kg per wheel, this wheel is also prepared for heavy loads and off-road use.
Q&A - Frequently asked questions
Does this set fit directly on my Ford F-150 Raptor?
Not directly. Due to the Raptor's wider suspension, you need a spacer of approximately 44 mm for correct fitment. Without a spacer, the wheels sit too far inward.
Are spacers included?
No. This set is supplied without spacers. Use is at your own risk and requires correct installation with longer wheel bolts if necessary.
What will this upgrade do for me?
A noticeable improvement in handling, less suspension load, greater agility, and an exclusive look for your Raptor. In addition, you get a unique combination of comfort and toughness thanks to carbon's vibration-damping properties.
Are these wheels suitable for heavy loads?
Yes. The load rating of 862 kg per wheel is more than sufficient for all common applications, including off-road and trailer use.
Can I use my original TPMS sensors?
Yes, they can be transferred directly to the BST wheels. A professional installer can easily perform this procedure.
Are they legal for road use?
Absolutely. These wheels are tested according to DOT E and JWL and meet the requirements for road use in Europe and the US.
