SCS RAY10 wheels 16x8 & 17x8.5

To me no......but I’m very acustomed to aftermarket wheels on my vehicle. But if anything it does make it aggressive due to the wider stance

 

Are those matte gunmetal on mgm? How do they match up?

 

Guess what I got in the mail today! Thanks VIN; they're goregeous.
Now I just need to figure out what tire to wrap them in... Choices choices

 

Mine feels different. Seems to have a lot more bump steering. I expected it, but yes, it was weird at first.

 

Brown Santa brought my Ray 10’s for my wife’s GX460 and some Falken Wildpeak AT3’s

 

Yeah, they almost look the same color in different light

 

I went with 305/65/17 tires, I really wanted to go 33x12.5x17 but the price difference was too much.

 

Very nice. I'm pretty convinced that I'm gonna go 275/70/17 for my size; would prefer to not do any cutting, and I'm trying to keep an equitable weight gain since I'm planning on a few other heavy mods as well.

My struggle is figuring which tire will give me the best results and performance with the least added weight (and still look awesome ). I'm leaning towards the Nitto ridge grapplers, but there's much more to read on the ko2's etc...

 

Thats probably the size ill end up going with but Im having trouble finding a tire I like, really hoping to find a C rated tire

 

General News

In the last few years, other wheel companies have been trying to follow suit to replicate what we've been able to carve out for ourselves in the off-road/truck segment. We're always trying to stay ahead of the curve when it comes to wheel designs and the overall fit and finish of our products. Being able to maintain that high level of quality and meeting the high expectations of our customers is an on-going challenge that we pride ourselves on.

SCS has decided to step our wheel game up, dig into our pockets, and invest into new technology. We are super excited to announce that we are transitioning the complete line to be produced using "FLOW FORMING" technology. This is the most advanced method of production short of offering full-forged wheels. The flow forming process of the barrel offers similar attributions to that of a forging process. After casting, the wheel is placed on a machine where hydraulic rollers and heat are used to put a large amount of pressure on the inner barrel. As the wheel spins, the pressure of the roller stretches the alloy to form the remaining width of the wheel. This process changes the mechanical properties and grain structure of the cast rim area to have better strength and stiffness. All of this will result in a wheel that is generally lighter and stronger at any given load rating when compared to gravity casting, high and low pressure, as well as tilt casting.

Flow forming wheels have been around for years, but they were mainly offered for sport cars and sport sedans. They do come at a premium due to the benefits and quality of the finished product. This means there will be a price bump in 2019, but for the rest of 2018, pricing will remain the same as we transition. Final pricing has not been decided yet.

We want to be the first truck wheel company to have a complete line of flow forming wheels. The last couple of containers that we've been shipping out have been flow forming in the 17x8.5 size. By early 2019, the 16" size should follow suit. We encourage you guys to do your own research on this technology. It's really cool stuff!

 

I just got these!!! Depending upon the lighting they have a bizarre and yet beautiful range of color! 16” RAY10 Matte Gunmetal

 

I'm very excited about today's delivery! The Brushed Copper looks even better than I imagined. After week of browsing this forum I decided to go with the 265/70R17 KO2 to avoid any rubbing until I figure out what lift I want to go with.

 

As someone who has been eying SCS and debating if changing from stock is worth it... and LOVE all the looks-- this is great news and sad news at the same time. I love the looks of SCS (especially F5s), and I love how they are lighter than stock (especially F5s) which are two hard selling points. The fact that I am still fairly content with my stock wheels and that they cost me no more money is a plus. So this new technology is amazing, and your current price point on aftermarket wheels is amazing. I'm SURE your increase in technology will increase sales if your price point stayed the same, but I'm afraid what will happen if you raise your prices.

Either way, still in the market for F5s but one thing I'd like to know is if I'd be guaranteed the new technology with a purchase. I would definitely purchase 17" wheels but not sure if 8.5 or 9".

Anyway, my 2 cents. Happy new technology, sad higher prices. You get what you pay for. Gotta weigh the pros/cons.

 

whos got pics of matte grey on a BBP 3rd gen

 

no center caps?

 

anyone done matte grey on BR ?

 

Should have them in a couple weeks, I guess they received a bad batch of center caps with the rim shipment

 

Got these bad boys just on. Matte bronze on quicksand. 16x8.

Anyone know if these with falken wildpeak at3w 265/75r16 fit in the spare tire space??? it seems pretty tight, and worried about it rubbing against the tail pipe.

 

I have 270/70-17 and they do fit but barely. I opted not to have underneath

 

Thanks @Chefjuan09 any input really helps me out... I was hoping to stick this underneath and possibly put a mbrp 3" exhaust ... decisions decisions decisions.
