[QUOTE="Nick@Apollo-Optics, post: 1217348, member: 1314"] Yeah, I’m happy to see the new flow form/flow forged technology enter the truck world. It’s time we get the weight down on some of these wheels. As far as why the wheels aren’t higher load rated, I don’t have an answer from Vorsteiner, but I would imagine it comes down to balance of keeping wheel weight down, while making sure they’re properly load rated. Most of the aftermarket wheels on the market market are in the 2200-2500 pound range so these are slightly less at 2000 lbs. However, they are properly spec’d based on the Gross Axle Weight Ratio of 3800lbs (rear) which puts them above what’s required. [/QUOTE]
