Gram Lights 57DR-X

Another offering from Rays Engineering
Gram Lights 57DR-X
Specs are 17x8.5 0mm
Thanks to @ShowstoppersUSA as always.
Mounted on Ridge Grapplers 285/70/17.

 

Yes I will lift the rear more once my AAL arrives.

 

Added some genuine decals as a throw back to my old set of 57S.

 

What did the bare rim weigh?

 

I believe they’re 24lbs

 

Hello, do you have side photos so I can visually compare offset 0mm vs -10mm? Im in between this two specs, also how many inches you have of lift?

 

2” lift
0mm is fine for me not too stance or “poke”

 

Awsome I think this fitment is perfect. Thanks

 

Wheels look great. How is the finish holding up? That special edition "low visibility grey" finish would look awesome on your white truck. Doubt I could pull that off on Lunar Rock as it would be way too close to matching the paint which doesn't look right unless its a black vehicle.

 

Finish is great so far. I applied graphene coating prior to tires and use graphene detailer spray each wash.
That grey would be awesome on Lunar.
I’m ok with bronze cuz it matches my grill letters.

 

Are you able to buy centercaps for these wheels or are they designed for an exposed hub?

 

I had Rays LPS center caps but didn’t like the red on bronze so I sold them.

 

Trying to find picture of 18"s on vehicles but not much luck. Aiming for these in 18x9, 0 offset with some 275/65/18s - not sure if it'll look awkward with a 2" lift or if I should stick with 17"s...

 

I run that exact spec (different wheel) on our GX and since the lift the tires look too small.
The good thing with 17s are tires costs much less than 18s

 

It seems the 17"s are too small and leave the tires looking like balloons, especially when there is 70 series on them. 65 series seems to be the sweet spot on 18"s for Tacomas. Any way you can send over some pics of the GX to see how Rays 18"s looks?

Here's a decent page with some pics of 17"s and 18"s on Toyota trucks...

My other thread but not updated with current suspension.

That Lexus has great proportions with the 18" wheels!

That white Lexus GX looks like perfect proportions with the 18" wheels.

Well - I joined the 57DR-X club today. Decided on 18x9, 0 offset as thats what I was after all along. Looks like the 0 offset version doesn't have quite of an aggressive concave like the -10 offset versions have but I'm ok with that. Are the hubcebtric rings by Mackin Industries required?

 

I didn’t use any hub rings on my setup.

 

Forgot all about this post. Anyhow - 57DR-X: 18x9, 0 offset. Toyo AT3 in 275/65/18 (one size wider and taller than the OEM tires 265/65/17). No rubbing on OEM mudflap, clears the upper control arm perfectly and no front bumper trimming. Next step is pulling them back off and installing 55mm wheel studs as the thread engagement I'm not impressed with.

 

I do like these wheels. Just picked up a set in gloss black, -10mm offset. Waiting on tires to come in.
