New wheels form Wheelers Off-Road
Just got in 4 new black alloy wheels, black lug nuts, and center caps for Wheelers Off-Road. I had mounted 4 new tires annd I'm off.
Wheeler's was a treat to work with. They sent me a e-mail reminder when the wheels arrived and the next day, they were in the UPS system and on the way to me.
Duxlor Tire in Libertyville, IL mounted 4 new Revo's and came in under the quoted price.
The guys at the tire place said the tires mounted and balanced with ease.
I think they make the truck look much better.

Hey, thanks for posting the pic! Those look great. What size revo's are those & do you have a lift? It looks really sharp & I'm considering those wheel on mine, but wasn't sure how the black would look with silver.

The tires are the stock 265/70/R16. My truck has no lift, infact, in that picture, I have the old wheels and tires in the back. so it is sitting a little lower. I removed the running boards, which makes it look a little higher.
Once again Wheeler's is a great company and the wheels are top quality. I ordered them a little over a week ago, at that time Wheelers said they only got 56 rims in.
This picture is with the stock wheels.

I asked the tech that exact question, he said they balanced perfect. No shimmy, shake, or vibrations. The tires are without question the best. All the wheel weights are on the inside. So far, the wheels roll great.

little late to the party but a few questions. I like em and was trying to buy a set. What B/S are they? Wheelers only has them in 4 and 4.5, and I was looking for 4.25 - plus they weigh in at 37 lbs each!!??!

And I wouldn't worry too much about .25" of difference in backspacing... hopefully you've got more than that much clearance one way or the other anyway.
Sounds like you might be looking at their steel wheels though. This thread was about their alloys.

I think those are steel aren't they? 37 lbs each sure seems like steel. That's what steered me into the Classic II's when I was lookking at the black Eatons.
Try sticking a magnet on them just for kicks...

Those look really good. Different than the black rims you usually see. I want to change to some black rims soon, and I think I'll run something like that. Thanks for the pics.
