yeah I've always been a fan of all Fuel's wheels, these new Fuel's are my favorite though. Too pricey for me

Big bucks for true forged wheels. Should hold up well though

They are tough!! Actually, I had FUEL mill the bead lock ring thicker so the bolts would be recessed below the ring, instead of setting on top!! If you compare the pic of the wheel online from the website you'll notice they're not displayed that way!!
