i went with Vorsteiner/VenomRex 20's & 35x12.5x20 tire, because I'd had 17" & 18" wheels on my rigs in the past. But after 2 years, if I could do it all over again, I would go with an 18" wheel like the Black Rhino Abrams or Arsenal in Gunmetal and 35x12.5x18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. I've had no issues with the 20's, just would feel less nervous about rubbing curbs or rocks with expensive wheels..........

The mere fact you should feel "uncomfortable" hitting a curb in a Raptor is insane! Why buy the truck?

View attachment 151170 View attachment 151171 View attachment 151172 Finally bit the bullet and went with the new MR703’s in black with 37” KO2’s. Truck looks amazing though I would probably prefer a little less offset. Running Eibachs in the front with a little rubbing at full lock until I trimmed the inner corner of the fender liner, but it will still go to SVC on the 14th for the full 37 treatment so I can off-road with a little more confidence i won’t be tearing anything up. Have my 2020 factory beadlock and tire setup with 10/32’s tread still on them if anyone in SoCal is interested.

do you have any other angle shots so I can get an idea of the wheels offset with those tires? I’d like to see it with wheels straight front the front and also just a small angle from the front and rear so I can see how much those 0mm offset wheels poke out past the top of the fender flare, or not.

OK, so I have a questions that've been spurred by me researching and looking at selling my like new Venomrex 20's (20x9 w +12mm Offset) with Red inserts when I replace my tires in the next month or two. I want to go with a 17x8.5 Black Rhino Abrams wheels in Textured Gunmetal. Going from the pretty, **** look to more of a utility, military style for the truck.

Since Justin(from Pacific Wheel) is off for the evening, I have a question for the rest of the group. The new Abrams wheel I'm looking to switch to has a 0 Offset with a 4.75" Backspacing vs the OEM which has a +34mm offset.
- Anyone have any issues going to a 0 Offset 17x8.5 wheel?
- Is the 34mm change in offset enough to cause bad things when driving it hard off-road?

My backup plan is to go with a 17x9.5 Black Rhino Arsenal with a +12mm Offset and 5.7" Backspacing.

Thanks for any feedback.
