Re: Rocket Wheels

I'd like to run those on my truck, but I'll be switching rearends in the future and the backspacing won't work with the new rearend. They're great looking wheels. I hope somebody has some pics for you.

Re: Rocket Wheels

Here's one I found.


I really like the gray version of these and have been thinking of getting a set. Only problem (IMO) is that the widest they come in is 9". If I do decide, I'll most likely just get them in 18".

Here are the gray ones.

Re: Rocket Wheels

Lex, I am with you I wish they made something that was wider than 9 also.

Has anybody on this site purchased any?
