    JLB now makes 17" Konig Countersteer Offroads in black and they look more like the Volk TE37Xs. It's another option. :)

    Wow this is a really tough decision. I would have to say either the Mojave or Chamber. I voted for the Mojave because I really like very simple designs. Judging from your options I don't think you can go very wrong.

    Since I have the 7089's paid for and in shipment, I guess I'll vote for them. At $125 a wheel they fit my budget.

    Personally I like B & C. I'm partial to both, but I don't know anything about them. How is American Racing's quality?

    Yeah...budget is important after spending roughly 30k on a truck. That is one reason I am looking at the KMC XD Enduro...I can get them for like 113.

    That is a good deal. I might be leaning towards the KMC. I like the Pro Comps but I see them a lot. Chamber, Countersteers or XD Enduros are my choices now, we'll see on monday when I get call backs from a few people.

    i like my 16" countersteers haha..these rims are pretty light weight so less rotational weight on the drive line. they have taking a beating so far from desert pre-running to rock crawling. in my opinion it doesn't matter what type of finish is offered by whatever manufacturer. on the the trail rocks will rub, scratch, and pit the surface anyways. i bought the countersteers from my buddy and were originally bronze. spray painted them a black satin finish and you can't tell they were originally bronze until after each run we do, then you can tell from where the rock rash scratched the paint off. after each run i just touch it up with a little paint then it's all good again. and, most importantly..they are a good price!!

    The KMC's are nice too.
    Somehow I have coveted the 7089's ever since I saw TRDOakely's Taco on the first log in after I bought my truck.
    I could easily spend up to $175 each on wheels but everything I get has to be shipped to Hawaii. Wheelin in Paradise and paying for it, too.
