Anyone with fuel vector wheels?

just bought a set of 17x8.5 with the -6mm offset waiting for them to arrive. first time doing wheels anything i should know about them before i put tires on and all that jazz

 

getting a set up of 18*9's next week

 

17x8.5 -6mm offset with a 265/70R17 general grabber ATX

 

I have 17x8.5 coming this week. Any issues with the quality of the finish?

 

3 of the 4 were perfect, the one had a minor scratch from factory around the bead lock bolts assuming from them installing the bolts but nothing touchup paint cant cover up, after the install i dont even know what wheel it was anymore thats how minor it was, other wise im happy with the end product im gonna buy a 5th one for a rear tail gate swing out arm that im getting in the near future

 

Hopefully mine arrive ok

 

And the 20yr old kid mounts and balance them without gouging them

 

Looks good flash. Mine are being installed today. Can't wait!!

 

Looks amazing. Are they flush to the fender or past? Mine should be here by the end of the week.

 

just past, maybe by a half inch if not less

 

Ok, thank you!

 

Got my truck back last night. Love the vectors.

 

Looks really good! Can't wait to get mine on.

 

Here is mine. 17 x 8.5 -6mm offset with 265/70/17 K02's. I like the way it turned out.

 

Looks good! Any lift or is that stock height?

 

This is actually stock height, but it's hard to tell because it's on a hill. I plan on leveling it out with Bilstein 5100's soon.

 

I'm looking at this setup, but don't want to trim/lift to cure any rubbing. How was it at completely stock? Any clearance issues at all?

i rode stock height for a week. zero rubbing, even in full turn reverse.

 

Sorry for the delay. Been traveling the last few days. No rubbing at all. In fact I reconfirmed last night. At full turn, there is still about 3/4" clearance. Basically the width of my index finger. I can fit my finger between the tire and the wheel well at both full turn left and right. I still haven't done the 5100's yet. I'm on the fence. I like the ride and look currently. I would like a little more clearance in the front, but not sure it's worth the money. I think the biggest change in the look/stance is the fact that these are negative offset wheels (-6mm...they stick out further like a jeep). Compared to the stock wheels (+25mm) that are tucked inside the wheel wells, this looks much better with zero rubbing. Add on the K02's and +1 size (265/70/17) and I really like the wheel / tire setup.
