Heavy Duty Wheels

[Uncas]

Has anyone found an 18x10 inch wheel rated for 4000#. I am planning on going to the Ridge Grapplers rated at 3970 lbs. I like the look of the solid Black Rhino but they only have a 3640# rating and my current rear weight is 7540# Any suggestions?

That is a large rear weight. What are you carrying?

I forgot about Method HD but would like to find an 18x10 with a positive offset. Looks like the Method HD only comes in 18x9 with an 8x170 bolt pattern.

innov8 are probably the strongest wheels out there since they're forged, not cast.

Very Nice. Did you lift the truck?

 

[erikswedberg]

it’s the carli pintop 2.5” which only lifts the truck 1.5”

i have a feeling you could put on the same wheels/tires with only the carli leveling kit which is less than a grand

i would have got the method HD wheels if they offered them with 0 offset, but CJC was pretty insistent that the 0/4.75” offset is what i wanted

 

[Uncas]

Very nice, I like how the tires stay tucked under. I am considering the Carli leveling coils and HD Deaver mini-pack leafs. I want to go to a 13.5 inch tire to give me a wider footprint. I think that will stabilize the camper.

I looked at 13.5" wide tires for my truck and one thing to note is most of them have a lower weight rating than the 12.5" versions by 3-400 lbs per tire. The only exception I found was the Toyo MTs in a 37x13.5, but they weigh 94 lbs each, which is more than the factory wheels and tires combined. (factory wheel and tires weigh 89 lbs total)

You could do a lower offset wheel to give you a wider stance with the same 12.5" tires, but they are sometimes harder to find for our trucks. (ie. A 9" wide wheel with a -12mm offset and 12.5" tire will be as wide as a 9" wheel with a 0 mm offset and a 13.5" tire) The tire is not as wide, but both combinations stick out the same distance for a wider stance.

I ordered the Fuel Zephyrs 17x9 in a +1 mm offset because the -12 mm offset wheels were out of stock and Fuel has no estimated time for them to be available due to low demand for the -12 mm offset wheels on a Super Duty.

Looks great. I have the 701s on my Tundra right now. Ordered a 7.3 Tremor, and will likely go the 703 in 17 route this time. Btw, what exhaust tip/system do you have?

I went with the MBRP resonator back system. It came with black pipes and a black exhaust tip.
