I’ve narrowed the wheel choices down to two and the Vorsteiner 601 in Tungsten Graphite finish is one of them.

How does the Tungsten Graphite wheel match up compared to the stock trim (bumpers, fender flares, etc...)? My truck is being built in two weeks and is the color Leadfoot - I believe this is a combo used on the marketing pics/videos but it’s tough to see if the wheels are black or just dark gray in some of them.

What color Center Caps come with these (I’ve seen matching color of the wheels, yellow, and red in different pics.


Also, any vendors - if you could please PM me with your pricing for forum members on a set of these wheels it would be appreciated.

Thank you!

These are listed as Carbon Graphite from Vorsteiner. Is that the same as the Tungsten Graphite standard finish?

I have a set, the rims are just a touch darker than the flares. Pretty darn close though. My caps match the rim finish.

Thank you - I ordered a set, now the truck just needs to be built.......

I had a 17, literally just traded it in for an 18 I ordered today. It was quick, 2 months from order to delivery. Went from black to white. The rims look great on the white one! I love the style, a touch different, but look like they could be factory too...

I’m looking at just over 2.5 months as I ordered before the summer break production shut down. Scheduled completion date is August 3, scheduled delivery is Aug 8-14.

Anyone know how the Patina Bronze and the Highland Bronze differ? Anyone have side by side pictures. They both seem to look similar under certain lighting.

Highland is just a touch brighter than Patina Bronze.

But both colors have a ton of metal flake in them so they change a lot with light.

Here’s the best side by side comparison I can give you since they were both taken by professional photographers.

Curious if anyone has tried these wheels with geisers and 37” Ridge Grapplers?

You're going to have to do some trimming.

We've fitted these wheels on Nitto Ridge Grapplers in a 325/60/20 and still have rubbing at full lock with RPG Adjustable Spring Perch collars set at 2 5/6" of heigh increase.

What would you have to run on 20s with stock truck to not rub on daily driving?

Do you know how much the rolling diameter changes in comparison to stock wheel?

You'll want to run a 35x12.50x20. If you run a K02, it's 0.2" taller than the OEM 315/70/17 tires. With a 35" tire, you'll only get slight rubbing at full lock in reverse on stock suspension. If you add a pair of spring perch collars, you'll eliminate the rubbing.
