Wheel specs: 17X9.5" +22 offset. Weight per wheel 21.4lbs. Wheels are weight rated to 2500lbs. Weight savings over the factory cast wheel is just over 15lbs per wheel. I know the chrome (actually PVD) is not for everyone. Quite frankly I am not 100% I like it. I may end up having them powder coated if the finish does not grow on me. My goal was a light weight strong wheel, no fake beadlocks, not black, and easy to clean.

I'd personally get them stripped and powder coated in matte or satin black (or dark grey) but they are good looking wheels and you can't argue with the weight savings. I'm planning to move to 37s soon and lighter wheels (and brakes) will be part of the package.

I think that I’m glad you like them.

They are accomplishing your modification goals.

Strong work and keep on truckin’

Not a fan of chrome, but these wheels after they powder coated grey or black would look great. They are perfect for the truck since they are so light.
