2015 Ford F-150 Gets Widebody Kit and Forgiato Wheels

There was no shortage of weird trucks at this year's SEMA show in Las Vegas. Raised, stanced, slammed and widened – American work vehicles were stretched and pulled in every direction to create amazing show pieces with little to no practicality left.

We didn't, however, notice that Forgiato had a widebody F-150. That's right, the most popular vehicle in America is now riding low, like a Lamborghini supercar. And the best thing about it is that this project is bang-up-to-date, a 2015 model year with the aluminum bits.

The F-150 widebody kit was built by a company called Wide_Body_Kings / TS Designs. They're responsible for some of the most amazing Forgiato custom projects, including those killer corvettes with huge wings.

To help the truck "roll" the right way, Forgiato have bestowed it with a set of their 24-inch F2.19 wheels. They've intentionally chosen a sleek, super-light wheel design to help them clash with the traditional look of a truck and make you go "are those racecar wheels on an F-150? Cool."

Ford actually touched on the Forgiato F-150 very briefly in a press statement back in October, just before SEMA. They said Octavio “Topo” Villafana, the boss of TS Designs, is known for his all-metal conversions, which have most prominently been seen in the Mustangs used in the movie “Need for Speed.”

Beside the extra amor, the F-150 also boasts a Vortech supercharger, Gibson exhaust, Belltech lowering kit, ARE tonneau cover, Alpine audio/video upgrades and Roadwire leather seating.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
