Default Rockstar wheels come in 17 inch now??
Anybody out there running the black rock star wheels in 17? I noticed they're available in that size now and might prefer that over 18's or 20's.

I'm pretty sure they have been out for awhile. The 17x9's are a -12 offset so they're perfect for A Jeep. 17x8's are +10 or +35 offset.

I would think someone on the Forum has them...

Looks like they've only been available since the end of April 2012, so I guess it might be too soon for feedback. You got me thinking about offset though. I wouldn't want the wheels sticking out any further, so I wonder if +10 offset is doable?

Ordered them yesterday, along with some 35"km2. Unfortunately I still have to wait 3 weeks for my lift.

They've been on nationwide back order for a long time. It's cool that they're back

Unfortunately they sent my the wrong bolt pattern, and after 2 weeks of arguing back and forth over the phone they hooked me up with a great deal on the 18". The increased price in the tires hurt, but I think going with 37" was worth it.
