SCS SR8 new wheel model

Although, we won't be offering white as one of our official finishes, if you guys can get about 10 folks to commit, I can make it happen for you guys and do a small custom order when we place our order. There wouldn't be no additional charges if we go with this route. There would just be a little bit of a wait.

count me in lol
#1 hahaha but in all seriousness ive already started saving my funds for these rims...the day they are released i will be ordering a set
 
I like the removable bolts. Allows customization not only with colors/finishes, but also style. I think some stainless button head cap screws would look sweet.

So, check my math for me. I have OEM 17's right now with 1.25" spacers.
OEM wheel = 7" width & +30mm offset (which I believe equates to 5.2" backspace). With the added 1.25" spacers this nets me right at 4" of backspace.
Your 17 = 8.5" width with 4.3" backspace (which should be equal to -10mm offset)

Using this math, adding your wheel in place of my OEM's & spacers, I show that I would net an extra 1/4" or so of backspace bringing the wheel closer to the truck. Am I figuring this right? If I'm right, I can't run these wheels with the Camburg uppers. They require no more than 4" of backspace :(

John, can you show me the link to the UCA that you're currently using.

Here are the one's I'm running: Camburg Toyota Tacoma Pre/4wd 05-13 1.25 Performance Uniball Upper Arms | Camburg Engineering

Interesting though, when I bought these, Camburg told me max backspace was 4"...but now per their website it says 4.5" :noidea: If it truly is 4.5"...then these wheels would still work.

That was the only one I found too so that's why I asked to make sure. We haven't had anyone reported UCA clearance issues with any of the aftermarket units thus far. Typically, they call for 4.5" max backspacing. I have the LT Camburg kit of my '05 Tacoma and there's plenty of clearance with the Stealth 6 wheels(same spec at the SR8).
 
It's only a little update, but we've been able to start the process with our manufacturer. There's a subtle change to the step lip design. It's very minor and it did not change the look and feel of the SR8.

Basing off of our original 3D render, we went one step back and speced out the wheel design. This is the official 2D layout that will be used to create an official 3D render and from there our MOLD.

Looks like the spokes pull out towards the outer lip. For see any clearance issues with the brake caliper? (Just remember the Method wheels with similar design rubbing)

Can't wait for these to be out in production, my wheels are getting beat and want to be replaced. LOL

Whats an estimate price for a set of 5? In bronze of course.

According to our specs, there should not be any clearance issues with the calipers, but we will know for sure once our mold is finished and we test fit a real sample.

Pricing has not been set yet. I will announce it when I know for sure. Just keep an eye on this thread:biggrin1:.

Awesome. And you know I will.
 
I noticed the series 6 wheels on your website don't come in 16" form. Do you have plans for 16s ? I don't see myself ever going to 17s.

Thanks.
