SCS Stealth 6 wheels 16x8 & 17x8.5

Vin, what's the closest paint match to the matte gunmetal? (Duplicolor or plasti-dip) I'd like to do my badges and possibly an Avid light bar and would like to have everything match as close as possible! That's something I can do now too that way it's ready when I order my wheels!

 

Vin,
Thanks again for starting the pre-orders. I'm stoked to put them on. I was looking at buying some black locking lug nuts and wondering what lug style "seat" would fit the stealths?

 

Buy everything you want before you get married. Once married your stuck explaing every purchase....ha congrats

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^
Seriously!!

 

Check your PM.

PM coming your way in a second.

To be honest, I'm not quite sure as I've never used the gunmetal finishes offered by Duplicolor or Plasti-dip. It would have to be a trial and error thing. In this case, you need our wheels first.

Marc, you've already paid for the black spline lugs. Double check your invoice.

 

so I've heard.. haha

I've been dropping hints that I want some SCS Stealth 6's for my wedding present.. My birthday is this month too so I mentioned that they would be back in stock right around the same time

 

quick question for anyone running stealth 6's with a mild lift- I've got a set of 17" S6's with 265/70/17 grabber at2's on a stock suspension. I get a decent amount of rubbing right now, even with the mudflaps removed and a bunch of plastic trimmed out of the fender wells. Usually rubbing occurs when backing up and turning, or going downhill on logging roads and turning etc.. not during most everyday commuter driving.
​

I'm wanting to do a 2" lift (OME 884s) and am wondering if I get this lift put on, will I still be running into the same issues? Would it be worth it to look at a 2.5" lift or do you guys think I'll be ok? Hoping someone out there is running OME 884s and can chime in with this wheel/tire combo.

Thanks!

 

Subbed! I WANT...Matte Black FTW

 

Vin-
Silver on the way soon!
Know anywhere to get good deal on tires in Nor Cal? Thinking Toyo A/T II LT 265/70/17 Extreme?

 

Where are you rubbing exactly? What have you cut exactly? Post some pics if you can. I'm almost positive the OME lift will help you

 

In theory even though you lift the truck you may still rub, because the travel of the suspension doesnt change. BUT it will help alot, if you rub on a little compression now, after the lift you will have to compress the suspension 2"+ to rub in the same spot. I have 885s, so probably 1/2" more lift than you plan on doing, i bet i would have zero rubbing with 265s after a littlleee trimming. Right now i still have some rubbing with 285s and alot of trimming. I think 884s is a good choice for you, you dont want to risk going to high, having alignment issues and needing aftermarket UCAs, 2" of lift will most likely stop any rubbing during normal driving and it should help prevent it even when offroading.

 

Does anyone with 265/70 tires have a pic looking from front to back of the side of their truck showing where the tires sit in relation to the fenders?

 

Stole these from upupdowndown's post on the old group buy thread

 

Looks like I overlooked a couple spots that were still rubbing on plastic so I hit them with the dremel and hopefully that solves that. Thanks for the help guys. I'm gonna assume that the 2" lift will only help and if there's still some rubbing, I can always add a small spacer to get to 3".

Oh, and the offset on these give you a perfect aggressive stance from front and back. Love em!

 

+1

 

Is it me or do a bunch of people run the Stealth 6 with BFG ATs?!?! I just ordered a set of the Stealth 6s in Matte Black and trying to decide on tire choice now...I'm liking the look of the ATs on these wheels - clean and mean

 

hmmm...

 

^^^^ Dirty and mean

 

FTW
