What are you going with 17 or 15?

What model wheel are you looking at, and what size. I know a guy at billet and I get wheels WAY CHEAPER than what is advertised on their site. I got a set of 17x4.5 street lites for about half of what they advertised on their site.

I would go with 1.625 to move the tire out. I have 15x5s and wish they had less BS.

Thanks for the offer, unfortunately I already placed the order through Summit for the 15x4 1.625 BS with 28x7.50 M/T Sportsman S/R radials mounted and balanced. But I haven't bought back wheels yet so I may be in touch.

Cool, I know summit usually buys a nice stock from them but some custom backspacing wheels for example are a 3-4 week wait time.
