    I just decided on:
    FUEL MATTE BLACK VECTOR WHEELS

    In the ordering process they are asking if I need 1mm or 20mm offset. Can anyone help me answer that question?

    Don’t get them (Fuel)! That’s exactly what I started with (Fuel Vector in black) and boy did I make a BIG mistake.

    Fuel wheels are garbage quality. 2 of 4 originally had damage coming out of a factory sealed box with no damage. Ironically damage was next to QC PASS sticker on one of them. I mean there was a giant chunk missing.

    Replacement wheels 5 and 6 both had flaking finish around the center hole when I removed the center cap. Like the paint literally fell off exposing bare metal probably in a silver dollar size area.

    The icing on the cake was all 4 wheels I mounted had a lug pattern drilled off center, so all 4 wheels were dangerously out of round. I am an engineer, I measured the wheels on a CMM. Did I say dangerous?

    For the same price, put some quality wheels on your ride. SCS is who I ended up with.

    Ray10 from SCS is a near identical style. It is a cool style, it’s just a shame that Fuel did me wrong.

    Here’s some pics I took along the way...only good thing is they did take them back for a full refund.

    You can see how the wheels are not mounted on the center of the hub even though the cone seat lug nuts have centered the wheels on the studs in these 3 photos. It’s touching the hub on one side with a visible gap on the other.


    In these photos you can see the finish chipping off the wheel. It was cracked much further than this but I didn’t flake it off.

    Specs are perfect. Might have a few mm of poke with -12 offset. I think it’d look good though.

    Ignore backspace. Look at offset only. Read an article about offset and what it means to you. You can mock up what the offset will look like if you measure. Stock wheels are +25mm offset, ergo you’ll have 40mm more “poke” than you do now.

    What he said,those are the same specs as the wheels I have and linked. They stick out about 1/2 inch and the 265/75/16 fills out the 9" perfectly.
