American Racing Tactic wheels

[dannyb420]

give me your honest opinion plz:


It comes in all chrome as well, I usually am not a big fan of black wheels but I have seen some that look great, plus I have an all Black explorer as well so I think that with the little chrome on the wheel it would look nice. Its not Teflon but a black matte finish. I bought some of Roadbullys 2" coil spacers from Rhyno who didnt use them so the rims would be going with the lift, and with a new set of 265's. One question though...I considered going with 17's but that would probably limit the size Tire I can get right? Maybe I should just stay with 16's since my spare will be 16' I appreciate everyones help.

Very much so.

How much per wheel are they?

If you want to go 17's i think 245/75/17s are big as a 265/75/16s


Also if your moving up from stock size your spare will be too small anywho. Maybe i interpreted that part wrong.

I think they would look nice on my all black explorer. I found them for $533 for all 4 shipped! I already have 265's on but they are due for replacing, I put a 265 on the spare as well in case I got a flat so it wouldnt screw up my 4wd so I am already set. This will have to wait until after christmas at least thats what my wife says and shes the boss.

I think they would like nice too. Mines all black and ive been looking for the right wheels to put on ... for the right price also. Haha.
533shipped isnt bad ... Too much for me tho.

Having the same size spare is also nice, Just in case.

Ahh wife + truck mods = no .. haha. My girl dosnt want me to lift my X b/c she wont be able to get it without climbing. Hehe.

Ohhh wellss

Those are nice looking wheels. Just enough chrome to set them off.Problem with chrome is the winter road chemicals tend to pit and rust them.I had a CJ-7 Jeep with black 15x10AR painted steel wheels the only bling on them was the Stainless steel center caps and lug nuts, when they got dinged up off road just got the rattle can out for a quick touch up.I have a 03 XLS all black but I still like the factory alloy wheels.

Thanks for the feedback, I will probably use my factory alloys for winter driving as the tons and tons of salt they pour on the road here equals major corrosion.

offset

one more question, it looks like I can get it with a 12 offset or a 0 offset, I want them to stick out to align with my fender so I would want the 0 right? If I get rims I want them to offset without the use of a wheel spacer.

Hey bro check this site you get the center caps, wheels and lugs for 460 shipped

Make sure the center hole is not too big.2006 and up has a bigger hole so if these wheels fit 2002 up you will need hubcentric rings to make up the difference.

Ive got an 04 so I should be good then right? what about the offset, there is tons on here about it but I only have two options with these tires a 12 offset and a 0 offset. Can anyone confirm that if I want them to stick out a bit so they align with the fender I want the 0 offset right?
