    just curious, but has anyone from Hawaii ordered through you? I like the look of these, but figured shipping would be outrageous to Hawaii...

    Dustin, these wheels are awesome! You were fantastic working with me and you're the ambassador of customer service in my opinion. It was great doing buisiness with you and thank's again for the awesome wheels! I'll be getting back with you for a matching spare. TW, buy wheels from this man, you WILL NOT be disappointed with the product or the service!!!

    I'm hoping to get them wrapped with 265/75/16 BFG AT KO's very very soon! I just have to decide white letter out or in haha.

    Thank you for your kind words. :) It was a pleasure doing business with you. I hope to see photos of your truck with the wheels installed soon! My personal vote is for black letters out.

    I like the white letters out for more a old school look on the earlier pickups. Just my personal preference though! I think your truck will look good either way. :)

    PM sent to you! Thanks!

    I *believe* the base 16" steel wheels are somewhere between 25lbs - 30lbs per wheel (it's been a while since I had my hands on a steel wheel, and I can't find the weight in my notes).

    The 16x8" Countersteer Offroad weighs just over 18lbs per wheels, so on the conservative side of measuring you'd be reducing your un-sprung weight by 6-7lbs per corner, and you might even be reducing the weight by as much as 10-12lbs.

    In my personal opinion graphite gunmetal and matte black look the best on Magnetic Grey. The graphite gunmetal is almost a 100% match to the Magnetic Grey color, and matte black offers a nice, subtle contrast.

    I love the anodized bronze look or maybe it's just my Subaru roots. Also reminds me of the Kashima coating contrast on Fox shocks. Thanks for the rapid response and great service Dustin!

    Thank you for posting your photos and kind words! Anodized bronze looks great on your black truck.

    Great comparison with the Fox Kashima coating color too. I never thought of that. You must ride mountain bikes? :)
