can get for around 150 a wheel. but if a friend of a friend comes through, then i can get em between 125-150 a wheel. 17x8.5 with 0 offset.

black rhino rockwell


around 150 a wheel and free shipping from discount tire. and 17x9 with -12 offset

what do you guys think?

if you dislike both, please post something you think would look good.

my requirements are, wheel must be black. gloss or matte, but i'd prefer matte. must have some sort of spoke design, no more holes for me. i would also really prefer a wheel that has some sort of silver bolt around the outside like both wheels listed here. and no silver fake bead lock rings like my wheels now.

broke down and ordered the rockwells. for 570 otd!

still undecided on a wheel for my spare. either purchasing another black rhino wheel or just a cragar steely... idk. i think if im gonna have it on the spare mount it needs to match the rest.

#2, they're wider and have less backspacing. IMO a good looking wheel is worthless if it doesn't fit proper. Offset is everything.

No i assume they are saying "we wont get a shipment until then" because you buy the wheels from XXX.com and they ship from some random warehouse. But honestly it usually means they aren't being made anymore or something often times.
