My brother recently broke his second 20" Rockstar on his F-350 in only a couple months. Wheel Pros informed him they are having issues with the Rockstars on the big trucks, especially F-350s, and proceeded to replace all 4 of his wheels with a set of their new Revolvers in black. Just thought I'd pass on the info so you guys running the Rockstars can keep your eyes on them.

 

thanks for the heads up!

 

Wow that sucks, its defiently a good looking rim.

 

That's good to know Pauly! I do know first hand that the XD Hoss's seem to hold up pretty well... A couple weeks ago, I hauled a big load of firewood, and the rear axle weighed in at 8,600 lbs!

The Carli bags had 110 psi and the rear end was still lower than the front, but it rode great!

The F350's I had were designed to run hub centric rims. Most of the aftermarket rims I looked at were lug centric. If the rockstars are lug centric that may be the issue.

 

I broke 3 of the Predators on the '05 while sled pulling last season.

 

I broke 3 17" dc-1's on my 03 in the rear. Went to the 20's and never looked back.

Yeah my buddy CJ (blackbullet) has a HD F250 with 12" of lift and he had to replace all 4 of his rockstars cause they cracked.

 

no problems here out of the XD badlands.

 

Thanks for the heads up, I haul firewood quite a lot and will no keep a eye on them in the future.

 

xd rims suck *** and they mostly wont even warranty em..i had some urban assaults that the finsh came off and the beadlock holes wallowed out from constantly looseneing bolts and they told me tuff poopy. if 4wheelparts in tampa hadnt come thru for me i have made a mailbox out of em....

kmc and xd wheels suck and they wont stand behind thier own warranty

 

They replaced 5 wheels for my brother under warranty.

 

Well...we are going to see. I am going to throww 800+ hp at some Hoss's soon.

My current 37's are for sale...

 

I've beat the crap out of my 17" Hoss and they've held up fine.

 

Pauly,

Do you have any problems clearing weights...even if they are double stacked with the 17's?

Clearing the calipers?

Could you measure the gap in front... min clearance on the wheels to caliper?

I would love to stay with 17's...but with the larger tire I am looking at...I need room for mucho balance weights.
