Default Fuel Boost Rims

Looking to order some Fuel Boost Rims, 17x9 with 35 x 12.5 x 17 Nitto Trail Grapplers.

(1) Does anybody currently run this setup? From my understanding I won't need to run a spacer.


(2) What is the best place online to order rims? Any forum sponsors I should look at? I believe I'm ordering the tires from Discount Tire Direct.

Thanks

Find the backspace of those rims, and compare it to the info in the faq's.

Find the part number on those rims, and do a quick internet search for prices. Then use the lowest delivered price as a price-match for DTD.

yeah from what I read and looked at in the FAQs I think I'm good.

and DTD doesn't carry fuel rims or I would get them from them. Lots of places online, just was hoping to find a site somebody has used before and was happy with.

4wheel Drive Hardware gave me a great deal on my Fuel Hostage and DC Mud Counrtys. Researched a lot and they gave me the best deal. I have the same size you're looking at w/ 4.5 bs, no rubbing.

I have 5 fuel boosts with the specs you're looking for. They are mounted right now but only have 500 miles on them. I have trans problems so my jeep is sitting. I'll sell all 5 for $1000 shipped. Pm me if you're interested.
