Anyone running the Moto Metal 951 wheels?

I'm looking to get new wheels/tires after I do a leveling kit.

I'm looking for a black wheel, probably 20"x9", or 20"x10", somewhere in that area.

I like the looks of the Moto Metal 951's but can't picture them on my truck.

Any pics of these wheels on a 3rd Gen QC SWB would be great!

Thanks
Shawn

Southerngent,

That is a NICE looking truck!

What backspacing are the wheels?

Also, are the pics with or without the leveling kit?

How much did you end up spending on wheels/tires?

And, does it still rub with the leveling kit on it?

Thanks!

Thanks...The backspacing is like 4.5 and them pic's are before the leveling kit...It doesn't rub at all now with leveling kit on "2 inch TopGunCustoms" off ebay... It all set me back around $2500 mounted/taxes/lugs/warrenty...Not bad, but you could get it all off ebay for around $2000 maybe a little more...But I had a local shop do it all for me, that way I can have them balance/rotate them for free now...

Southerngent,

Thanks for the info.

I've got a white ram, and will probably go with the black version of Moto Metal 951's. I like the combo on your truck, and it's making me think about the chrome

If you get a chance to take a pic with the leveling kit, I would appreciate it.

Also, if you get a chance to get an exact backspacing on those wheels, it would be helpful before I order them. I'd hate to order wheels and have to sell them because they don't fit.

Lastly, Have you tried the tires offroad at all, or have they been on the street only? How does it ride on the road? What gears do you have, and did you notice much of a difference in power/mileage?

I will be using my truck in sand 95% of my off-road time, and I'm a little worried that the Irok is too agressive for sand (it looks like they will just dig). So, I may end up with an AT instead.

Looks great!

Well I've always been a chrome "bling" person...lol I'll try and get some fresh pic's of it soon. As for the back spacing one website stated 4.78, that sounds about right...They stick out pass the fender quiet a bit...But I like it so, go figure...As for off-roading with the Iroks, not much...But I wouldn't run them in sand to much...I'm sure they would like to dig down, but they are a great handling tire and seem like they might even hold up pretty good too...
I don't get around much sand, so I'm really not anyone to give advice on that one...

Anytime...
DS

Also really no power loss 4.10's and 6sp CTD...So no worries there...
