That looks just like the spare rim I purchased with Amazon recently. About the same price ($80).

BUT..... They are NOT an exact match to the factory Ford Rim. They rub the front cailper on my E450 Axis RV. Might be able to grind down the caliper slight (just need like 2 mm more of clearance).

Plus the 4 oval holes on the rim are different size (so the OEM cap that olds the air valve wont fit) and the little hole that lines up the dually rims in the back was 90 deg off so now the valve stem is 90 off from the other rim (instead of 180 deg off like factory setup).

Im using this rim anyway but for the same price ($80) other have purchased used rims (look like new) on eBay (I should have done this as well).
