Who makes this wheel?

[adam05ford]

I am looking for tires and wheels right now and while I was on Toyo's website I saw these wheels. Does anyone recognize them or have any guess's who makes them?

Looks like a Robby Gordon rim

Not sure on your rim, and I know that you didn't ask, but here is mine on a 17" rim by ProComp. Just to show you that any black rim looks good with these tires.

Kyle its funny that you posted that. I was actually just looking at those today. They look really good and are very affordable for a good looking aluminum wheel.

What size tire is it? 35x12.5? Also aren't they 4" backspace? How do they clear? I figured if a 4" back space was too much I could always just throw a 1/2" wheel spacer in there.

Tire is a 35X12.50. Just sitting and turning from side to side, I did not get any rubbing in the garage. But they did get awfully close. I went ahead and did a 1.5" spacer just because I wanted them to sit out a little wider and to ensure I did not have any rubbing when driving or when I took it offroad. I can't tell you anything else since I am still getting it all wired up and put back together. If you need any additional pics, let me know and I can get them for you.

yeah i would like to see some pics mounted with or without the spacers if you have some. I just looked as saw they probably have 4.75" backspacing. It seems like alot but if they work they work.

 

[Kyle.malone]

They are 4.75 I believe (I think thats why I went with a 1.5"). These are the only two pics I have I'll get out in the garage and get some front and rear views for ya in a bit.. Wife is yelling at me to eat dinner.

Couldn't get my Iphone to sync for some reason, so here is a video on YouTube. I shot it with my new Kodak 1080P Waterproof video camera. This thing is awesome and has awesome video.

Thanks Kyle that helps me out so much. I really like how the wheel spacers push them out just past the flares. The M/T's look really good on your bronco. I have them on my superduty but I am thinking about getting some Mickey Thompson MTZ for the bronco. I have a few more weeks to decide what to do since I just took it to get painted. Thanks again for the help.

I have had the ATZ's on my Dodge 2500. I know htey are two different tires, but same compound. They looked good at first, but when they started to wear down they looked rough even with alot of tread still on them. Juts my $.02.

Well thats no good. Thats one thing I really like about the Toyo's. I rotate them every time i change my oil and they have lasted or wore incredibly. They are more expensive but i guess thats why. I haven't had any experience with any Mickey Thompsons so thanks for the info.
