CIPA or Longview Towing Mirror Recommendation for a 2015 Ford F-150

Question

Question:

Debating between the two two mirrors you offer for a 2015 Ford F-150. Seems like the Longview mirrors have lots of reviews and you all promote pretty heavily. LVT-2300-C But, I like the looks of the CIPA mirrors better, but not any reviews. Maybe because they are newer? CM11550 The Longview look like theyd hold better due to the locking arm, while I think the CIPA are just held by felt pads and pressure/friction? The CIPA also allow the turn signal on the mirror to show through vs. no go on the Longview. Any advice on the newer CIPA mirrors based on experience and/or customer feedback? Thank

Either one of the CIPA # CM11550 or Longview # LVT-2300-C towing mirrors will work well for you. As you pointed out, the CIPA mirror will allow more of the mirror's turn signal to be visible.

CIPA makes very high quality mirrors and even though we don't have any feedback yet on them since they are very new I would still recommend them for you since they have such a great reputation and all of their other custom fit mirrors fit very well. The attachment method for either mirror would work great for you.

My contact at Yates Rubber advises that a nominal 8-inch keel roller does not measure exactly 8 inches; typically they are slightly smaller than the specified size, much the way a piece of 2 x 4 lumber is not exactly 2-inches by 4-inches. I took…

The closest modern tire size to a 7.00-15 tire is a 225-75-15 like the #AM10256 tire you mentioned. Typically, a 225/75-15 tire will measure about 8-3/4 to 9 inches wide by around 28-1/2 inches in diameter. We offer the same size in a Load Range E as…
