Whats everyone's thoughts on Fuel Wheels? Been searching for a set of wheels I like and I've kinda decided on the Fuel Nutz. A little searching the web though has me second guessing this decision. People saying that the chrome doesn't hold up well. I absolutely despise black wheels.

Any other suggestions as to a brand that holds up well? I want to get them ordered here in the next couple weeks so when it finally gets nice out I can put them on.

Gear(s) wheels has some nice wheels, xd wheels ..... If you want to be like everybody else get some American Forces. Just about every black wheel looks the same to me.

Bmf (now known as SOTA) are very nice and fairly lightweight compared to my last set of fuels. Also is a pain to get to the valve stem area on most fuel wheels.

If you really wanna be different check out adv1. They are starting to peep into market but they have made some of the sexiest wheels I've ever seen.

Those adv1 wheels are bad ass I just hate the huge wheel thin tire look. Call me a simpleton but those ol 38 groundhogs and 15" rims looked best to me back in the day.

I have a set of Fuel wheels in the PVD chrome. They look awesome and it holds up like powder coating. If you get them in a non-bro offset, they look great.

Lol ADV1's are gonna be north of $1k a piece. As well as Intro.

I like Fuels 2 piece designs in solid chrome but i hate theyre center cap. I like exposed lugs myself. +1 on the non bro offset.

I remember back in the early 90's when I was younger a "nice" set of wheels was $500 or less for the whole set!!!

For chrome I'd go with a forged wheel so no matter what happens you can polish it out. I like my bmf novakanes if you were ok with black and chrome

Same with American force lol. But adv1s to my knowledge are better designed for weight reduction. They don't just use light weight metal and call the wheels light weight. But as far as the offset goes I have no clue what they come in. Just tossing out other expensive alternatives to forces lol

I myself run Moto metals

Do you run them in the winter or just in the warmer months?

Joe's are identical to mine and I know I'm 10x harder on my truck with the roads and weather. Mines on their 3rd winter. Two of them has a small rock chip from 40+ mpg runs out lease roads when I was late.

And in the last 8 months I have been horrible about washing the truck. No pitting or corrosion.

That's good to know.

Fuel Forged has a set I like other than the problem of them being black. I just don't like black wheels.
