SCS wheels - BAY AREA CA

I was concerned that the 17x8.5" might cause some rubbing and another brand with 17x8-0 offset would be safer.... thoughts?

If you have the +4 caster you should be good. I've only been running mine for a few hours, but I'm at +2.8 and I am not rubbing on the body mount yet, but it's close.

I would recommend Vin over and over. Plus you'll love the aggressive stance.

Are these going to be for a limited time in this size ?

So, currently I have an Icon Stage 1, 285 duratracs and stock 17x7s. I did remove the mudflaps, and did the front fender liner mod and have no rubbing.

I would really like a wider rims for the 285s than the stock 7" and the scs 17x8.5s look perfect (offset is perfect too).

I was concerned that the 17x8.5" might cause some rubbing and another brand with 17x8-0 offset would be safer.... thoughts?

SCS are the sweetest looking I have seen so far, just don't want to create problems..

Justin offered some great advise. With aftermarket UCAs, you can add more caster to your alignment to shift the front wheels forward just enough to avoid rubbing the body mount area. However, tires vary too much from brand to brand to provide a definite answer. Your best bet is to add as much caster as you can and just consider doing the body mount chop especially if you plan to offroad.

Only the gloss silver finish is limited. The 17" size will be in our line up from now on.

Some shots I took after the install last week. Thanks again Vin.
