I used to have metal wheels, then I upgraded to clay ones. Once they came out with urethane and speed bearings it was so much better....

Very nice..... did you go 17x9 or 17x8 if you did the 17x9 did they push the tire outside of the wheel well?

17x8, but had to use two spacers, for about another half inch...otherwise the wheel would hit the brake caliper when it spins!!! now they are almost flush, stick out maybee just a little bit!!!
:wink:

I dont get it :( are you saying they come with zero offset? or you should have gone with the 17x9? I will be changing fron 16 to 17's with the 315/70/17 better all around look imo. Do you think the 17x9 would be to wide?

i think they shoulda just gone with the 17x9's in the first place!! and i also have 31570r17 which is basically a 35x12.5!! but i think they 9 in width would stick out just a tad mroe than with my spacers!!!

Put Helo 22's on my ladys Tahoe a few months ago, and they look very nice... Just a hint, Americas tire will price match, and you get the service to match.. :)
