Any good offroad wheels?

[adambomb946]

Hey guys, noob here with an 04 xtl. Ive got a set of 255/70/16 BFG A/T's and looking for a nice set of either 16 or 17 inch BLACK offroad wheels. Know any vendors or place where I might be able to snatch up a few of them? I certainly appreciate it. Would like to see pics of your Expys with nice wheels. Thanks

another vote for the DC-1's.... can't wait till i got enough $$$ to get me a set of 255/70/17's and some DC-1's, then get a set of 24" RB Spacers all the way around.

Have they fixed the clear coat problems on the dc-1's yet?

iirc it was only a batch or 2 that had that issue, and i believe as long as they are kept clean and not left dirty for a long period of time you should have no problem.

Those AR rims are aight...

I've been pretty hard on mine, and don't have any of the clearcoat coming off.

I like your snorkle setup...is it functional? Did you fabricate it yourself, or is it off another vehicle?

Yep, it's functional. It's off a 78 series landcruiser, and I followed the instructions to get it to attach to the guard etc; only modification required was to angle it back to the explorer windscreen angle. Cost me less than half a new one though, and no-one makes one for an explorer.

I like the american racing mojave in all teflon black. Do they make them in 16 inch and in an explorer fitment?

cragars in 17"

If you order those cragars from summit racing they have them in a 17"! The bolt pattern is 5x4.5 they have a wider off set so they stick out a bit looks pretty sweet!

Yeah they do. Scroll down to the bottom
17x8 and 17x9 in our bolt patterns

lol

every now and then my computer doesnt load the full webpage but says it did...i refreshed the page a few hours after i posted and saw them

what would be the best fit with stock setup? 17x8 w/ 5x5 bolt pattern?

Hell yeah! I don't know about the 3rd gens, but the 2nd gen stock center caps will work with the Cragers and looks badass IMO.
