Thumbs up New Rushforth wheels are HERE!

Smoked titanium Super Spokes w/exposed hardware...what do you guys think?:






Front detail:


Rear detail:


Sizes are 18x8 fronts w/245/40's and 18x10's w/275/40's

Could not be more happy with the quality of this wheel.I will be very proud to rock these Rushforth wheels...thank you Jay and a big shout out to Jon Henson @ www.driverzinc.com for again being THE MAN when it comes to fitment advice and customer service that is second to none.
This is my 2nd set from Driverzinc this year and I very highly recommend him for all your wheel/tire and accessories needs.

Looks great man....I wish I could get some. Could you post a front shot(looking at the tread) of how the Nitto 275/40/18's fit on the 10's. That is the same size I am running but on BFG KD's. Just kinda wanna see how these tires look width wise in comparison.

Thanks!

As you can see,the Nitto's are pretty "square" tires w/o much buldge.This is gonna help me bigtime w/clearance...
