Fuel Wheel quality question for current owners

[TWIIGG]

Recently placed an order for a 2020 Raptor and have been researching what aftermarket wheels to go with this time (my 2018 has RRW RR2-V). After days of reviewing different wheels, I decided that the 17” Fuel D680 was what I liked most. As I have no experience with Fuel wheels, was researching them online... unfortunately, most of what I found was negative- including Better Business Bureau’s rating. Just wondering if some of you that have had Fuel Wheels for a year or more could share your thoughts... I really want to believe that they are good wheels, but would like first-hand experiences. Thanks in advance!

I have put Fuel wheels on my TRD FJ, Z71 Silverado, Rubicon JK and Ford for the past 8 Years and never had any issue with them. Been to Moab, Desert of West Texas and Nevada. I have had 2 piece, forged and cast. I have these same ones on my current Gen 2 Raptor and love them.

I had one fuel rim crack on my F-350.

I don't have any experience with D680's but I've had 2 different sets of Fuel wheels on my 2017 and haven't had any quality issues with them. I have a little over 36K miles on my 2017 and I put 18K miles and 1 winter on each set and they still look great.

Hey hey that’s my truck. Wheels have been fine. The finish is matte and seems like I have to put more effort into cleaning them but they clean up fine.

Sure you ordered a 2020? Didn’t think banks were open for them yet.

Sweet looking truck- yours is the only blue one I could find that has the 17s! Mine will be Velocity Blue.

Yep... order banks opened July 15th- GSM actually had me press the order submit button on his computer when we processed it July 29th. As for the cleaning, they’ll be ceramic coated along with the rest of the truck... makes cleaning super easy!

My only issue with Fuel wheels is they discontinued the production of the Fuel Vector I had.

Where do you live, I might be interested in your ‘19 raptor rims, if you want to sell.

New Bern (coast of North Carolina). They will be the standard wheels, not the beadlocks, but will be for sale upon delivery as the dealership will be changing the wheels out and installing the Deavers and Eibachs

Thanks, I’m in TX. Probably can find the beadlocks around here as takeoffs.
