My Raptor is being delivered this week and I am going to replace the stock wheels. I originally had the upgraded factory wheel ordered but I received the call, (drop the wheels and I will get it built) and it was built. I just wanted to make sure I don't miss any possible choices, That why I am asking for your help with 17" bead rim wheel replacement. Not true bead lock rims.
So far I have 2-3 rims I would consider. I want the offset to be as close to stock as possible.
This truck is wide enough.
I have looked at Fuel, Method and Black Rhino.
Anyone else I should look at? My top 3 so far.
One last question, anyone have a set of factory bead-lock wheels for sales?

I was in a similar boat and ended up just ordering a set of the OEM beadlocks. They're sold brand new on eBay.

ALL 3 of those look better than the Ford offered beadlock capable!

Im doing what you are. I think you got "lucky" that they made you cancel your wheel order.

Ford charges too much for their BS beadlocks. I wouldn't run beadlocks on a street truck but if i did there are plenty of options that are better and less expensive. Not only that but the stock wheel offset makes the tires sit too far in for me

You may already know this but the stock wheel is:
2017 Raptor Stock Wheel Info

Stock Tires: 315/70r17
Stock Wheels 17x8.5
Offset: +34

I love Fuel Wheels and may put the "Pump" wheels on mine. If you don't want them to stick out much stick with an offset close to +34. Any number lower than that will move the wheel out that far in mm. So an offset of 0 would move your wheels out about 1.5" which you said you didn't want.

PS: I like the Fuel Recoil. If you get them post pictures as I can't decide what to get either.

$1200 for the wheels then another $800+ for the rings...You can get some pretty damn nice aftermarket wheels for that price.
