17x8 Black rock alloys

Quicksilversurf917 · **Posted:** Mon Nov 09, 2009 3:55 pm

Im thinking about keeping my 245/65/17's and getting these... http://www.summitracing.com/parts/BRW-900B781245/ and when they go bald or when id need new tires I would go to 255/70/17's or something along those lines. I would get 15"s but I doubt they would clear the calipers...

what do u guys think? I want to go above and beond with wheels. I want something besides cragars :roll:

but I also want alloys because they are lighter.

Would there be any problem running these? what about offroad- airing down, would they bend easily? etc.....

Thanks fellas!

Nice looking wheels! I like them !
I'd have to have a set for wheeling though, those ( if on mine) would be all scratched up after the first trip off road then :cry:

If you have TPMS, you need to make sure they work with the sensors.

If you want to keep them looking nice, yeah mall crawlin. Otherwise, to the trails with them.

There is a reason so many are on Soft 8 rims, they're cheap and thus not a big loss if they get damaged, plus they actually look pretty good.

On Jayme's KJ, she's still using the stock rims, cause they haven't cost us anything. Her driving style isn't that aggressive and she's still been able to inflict wheel damage, a few of the edges have some nice nicks, but they still hold air.

Those things are almost as fugly as the DC-1's.

i cant stand those types of wheels with the big gawdy looking bolts and silver trim around the edge. i just think it looks goofy and way too showy. i have seen some REALLY nice wranglers and cherokees, and those wheels just destroy the look in my opinion. doesnt look "tough" or "offroad-ish" to me. thats just my .02 though!

reminds me of something like this

I tried a set of these myself the problem is the offset - they will stick out past fenders about 1 1/2" - definatly a problem without a lift
