which aftermarket 17s do fit the new HD's?
Whose running what aftermarket 17's out there on the new heavy dutys? I want to get some new wheels, but I want to keep my tires interchangeable. I just don't want to run into rim fitting problems like some folks. I know the brake caliper clearance or the rear hub clearance can be an issue.
Thanks.
Thanks.

I'm running the Helos Guns with the 315 BFGs and they work fine. The offset seems about right to......I really wanted to avoid having the wheels stick too far out past the wheelwells. A set of Bushwacker extend-a-flares will cover this combo perfectly. I had to send back a set of the Helos Maxx8s because they didn't fit (front calipers - never even got to putting the back wheels on!)

Dang, I thought I was the only with the GUns on! Oh well, running on mine too. Offset was nice with 285's on them. Got a shot in my gallery with them on with my ATS flares. Make sure you check the wheel and calipers. Lot's will not fit our trucks, though they say they do until you try slipping one on.

I am also interested in which rims fit out trucks when 315's are installed. If anyone has 315's with aftermarket rims on stock truck, please let me know. The H2 wheels have an offset of +18mm and apparently they fit with no problems. Has anyone tried rims with an offset of 18mm or less? I want another set of rims, but I want to keep my 315's and I don't want to lift my truck.
