So waddaya guys think of these? They will have to be drilled out but I've been guaranteed by 2 different companies that they'll work. I'm planning on slapping a set of BFG A/T 275/65/17's on them.

oh la la! only 65 profile though? thats what I had on my stock 16's, can you go any bigger? Those would look killer with some big a** tires like fuelers...werent his like a 75 profile?

I'm not sure what he's got but these come out to basically a 31" diameter and 17x9's woot woot! I was stuck on all black but after test fitting these I think I might do something shiny.

well the 65 profile on a 17 is bigger than a 65 on a 16 cause it deals with percentages of the wheel diameter, i forgot but its some crazy math

right now i got a 255/75/17 and its a tall / skinny mud terrain

Empty V my current rims are for sale if youre interested i bought some new pro-comp rims

Those ones didn't fit that's why I'm looking at the RBP's which are much more expensive. Mounted an balanced they're $315/ea and that's a deal. 4wheelparts sells them for $356/ea.

Normally I'd say the all black but the silver with black inserts may look good with the two tone you're sporting.

I like the black ones (of course I'm a bit partial though) but I also like the ones you had on in the picture

No I'm planing on doing what you did to yours, that's classy. But maybe I'll go blue instead of green for the center caps, waddaya think?

Painting the Oem'ers for winter is a great idea to me. Silver caps looks best to me
