Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
Hasn't US Mag been making a couple of versions of these for a few years?

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
Yes, an alloy version which are also killer. However, you'll get a set of Detroit Steels for the cost of 1 wheel from US Mag.

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
Those are definitely a nice version of their steelies. I'm really surprised they haven't pumped out a whole range of options for these wheels. Their plain steelies are cool but are already really played out.

If you zoom in on the picture,... the center of the wheel looks like it has the "dual drill" double bolt pattern, like all the other Mobsteel wheels. But if you look close,... the stock center cap doesn't quite cover the larger bolt pattern.

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
I noticed that too. You are right about that. The other pic I saw shows they are dual bolt pattern. The fit and finish around the center cap is a bit rough for my liking. Be nice if the center cap fit more precisely to the rim but probably not possible because of being dual pattern

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
Has anyone seen a price list or backspacing options? Looking to purchase a set for my Suburban.

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
Very interested if they'll be cheaper then the US Mags version ($$$).
I emailed them for pricing on: rear 20 x 11 front 20 x 8 or rear 18 x 10 front 18 x 8 Last edited by Ekliptix; 01-11-2018 at 03:18 PM. |

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
US Mags Sierra is a forged aluminum wheel costing upwards of $900/ea. This is steel. Apples v oranges.

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
This is excellent news. I assume the prices above don't include the center cap.

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
Those look like old Mopar Ralley wheels. Who wants that on a Chevy?

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
Just spoke to MS on the phone. They wheels are ready but they still need to address the issue of mounting a factory truck center cap. As stated above, the wheels are multi-lug and due to the extra holes, there currently isn't anyway to bolt the factory center cap to the wheel. Sooooo the wait continues....Hopefully they can figure this out pretty quickly, as I would love to have a set of these for my Suburban.

Re: Detroit Steel Wheels
I like these wheels well enough and especially if the wheel can fit the original dog dish hubcaps - (though I realize that is not yet the case with these without modifications).
I still use my truck mostly as a truck though and on occasion will travel to the brickyard and pick up a cubic yard of some sand or granite aggregate or clay bricks or pavers. So I wonder what the load rating is on these wheels - I hope it will be at least what is stated on our OEM load capacity tag..(though I don't recall that figure for a C-10 with HD rear springs.. guessing 1,100 lbs.? (why they call it a half-ton?) |

18x8 rims $279 each 20x9 rims $288 each Powder coat $140 per set Drill and tap for dog dish cap $15 each $1334 plus tax. Not bad I guess. US Mags I price at above $900 each plus caps, taxes and shipping. I can’t afford that. Shipping will kill me though. I’m in Canada and a long way from Detroit. |
