Loving that Magnetic Grey. Thanks for posting that straight on shot. It's a good reference point for people compare offsets.

I ended up going with Fuel Assaults (17x8.5 +25mm). Big thanks to Scott at Customwheels4u, I got super fast. I wanted a size and offset close to stock. Love em so far!

That Magnetic SCREW looks awesome with black wheels. Thats the first Magnetic Raptor I've seen with black wheels. Looks sweet!

Those rims look great. Are those stock tires?

Yep, stock BFG tires.

For me, I really didn't want anything that much wider than stock or that stuck out further.

Those picks where taken on a cloudy overcast day. I think it looks better in the sun. I'll try to post a better pic.

My SCREW is the same color (if it ever gets built and delivered) and I'm looking to keep the stock tires and stance too, but with different rims. Yours looks great! Thanks for posting pics.

Not customers of our but the SoCal dealerships are already putting spacer lifts and 22's on. Photos provided by Black Rhino. If you're interested in Black Rhino wheels (17" through 22") shoot us a PM.
Oh my god those 22"s look so bad on the blue truck. It looks like a donk. WTF.



Just a heads up, Method Con 6's are now in stock and shipping.

Okay guys, so I just wanted to check with the wheel experts (and new Raptor owners) out there because I haven't bought aftermarket wheels in a long time. My dealer told me bead locks were not going to happen, so we removed them from my order on Friday (crossing my fingers for a VIN/build date soon). I want to get some aftermarket wheels, but don't want to screw up the functionality of the suspension (no rubbing when suspension fully compressed). How far can I go outward (offset) without creating issues? Do the 17x8.5, 0 offset Methods (which stick out 1.34" more than stock) create rubbing problems if suspension is fully compressed? I've read through the whole thread and no one has said how far out we can go without creating an issue. I also like some of the Fuel wheels. So how about a wheel like the Fuel Maverick 17x9 +20 offset (0.79" further out than stock). 0.79" extra seems pretty close to stock, so should these function the same as the stock size or do we not even have this much room to play with? How about the new Robby Gordons (+0.35")? I don't have the truck so I don't really have a grasp of what the tolerances are and how much room we have to play with before functionality is affected. Thanks for any feedback.

PS: Also, I like those Fuel Assaults (above) and they are only +0.35" outward from stock, but they weigh 43lbs!!
