Default Was curious about these wheels

Saw these and was curious. Not sure I'll like them but I got gunmetal color just in case I do.

I've never seen those. Where did you find them? Links?

eBay, they are China wheels I'm sure. They don't look like copies but I'm sure someone will chime in if they are

I don't think they're copies. China is starting to come up with some of their own designs and some are really nice. These wheels are decent looking for sure.

I'd say that's a safe assumption.

I'd say those would look really nice with a Ram, Silverado, or especially with a F250 body...

Here they are and there's no tuning the hub. It has permanent back spacing but is only 1/8 narrower per corner than my .375 hubs on the other China wheels in the pic and I would have to say still wider than stock backspacing. The right wheel when viewing from the back is my chance wheel with a .375 hub and the right side is this new Jaz wheel with nonadjustable backspacing. Maybe someone can tell the difference. The rims are heavier than other other I've ever had in my possession due to the inner ring. Anyone wanting a heavy wheel without weights, this is it. Sorry no scale. The center cap screws off and on. The fun metal is a nice cooler and so is the added touch of the valve stem! Now what do I run??? My trusty old black wheels or these new gunmetal grey wheels...decisions decisionsName:  IMG_7029.jpg

I think I like the look of the trusty old black wheels better, but these are still nice wheels.Name:  IMG_7056.jpg

Yeah, for a military or old-school bodied truck I'd stick to the black spokers. But those others are very nice - and a great find! Time for you to get another rig, just for the new wheels - see what ya went and did to yerself?
