    Mounted mine a couple weeks ago with K02's. Awesome wheel. Shaved ~15 per wheel/tire off from the old setup.

    Dark metallic blue is usually only available in special runs, if you’re checking their site it’s really outdated. Call/email and talk to Dustin to see what’s available. For what it’s worth, a year ago I almost went with that color in the 18” bfd but then waited for the new version in a different color

    could you share some more photos for @WrecklessAbandon and I , we like shiny blue wheels. Hes a hardcore JDM fanboy, and I fell into the rabbit hole of many expensive realms of wheels

    Can't get anymore photos because I sold the wheels about a year and a half ago.

    Only other photo I have is from the day I got them. Since you like shiny blue wheels here you go...

    Taiwan if I remember correctly, built by Konig. At least they used to be, could have changed since I got mine 5 years ago. I just got the bfd for my Lexus GX and they didn’t have any konig reference on the box

    @hungoverland on IG, King 2.5" EXT Travel w/ Archive Garage shock relocation, Icon RXT leafpack, 285 Nitto M/T's, bronze Raceline Defender wheels, TJM front/rear bumpers, TJM Sliders, Prinsu Cabrac, Katzkin leather, RSI Smartcap EVO topper, OV Tuned, MESO everything, Spyder headlights and tail lights, center mounted infant restraining system (CMIRS) \m/
    I'm currently running Raceline's Defender 935's (16x8) and see that they weigh 26lbs. I love the look of these FN's and see that they are 6lbs lighter-- assuming tires weigh the same, will I feel those 6lbs in every day driving? Rotational mass is something I am not very knowledgeable on, but I would assume the braking would be slightly better (?) and possibly some MPG increase. After almost 5 years of adding weight to the truck (skids, bumpers, RSI camper, etc), I am looking at ways to lighten where possible and would not hate an aesthetic change to keep things fresh. Thanks for any info you guys may have.
