NEED HELP FINDING 17"x12" WHEELS

Can any members out there help me find some 17x12 wheels for a 4x4 3rd Gen. If you can post a link of some 17x12s that would be a great help. I'm having a hard time finding some wheels that size . I've found 2 sets, but I know theres got to be more out there that I haven't found. I don't even care if there steel, they have to be 17x12. THANKS

That's a nearly impossable size to find. I know because im into rock crawling and the widest you could find for a long time was 9". Alot of crawlers still use 9" because thats the norm. I know MRW wheels will make you some as well as Stockton wheel. I know they now make some nice looking 10" but anything over that will most likely be ugly.

Why in the world would you want 12" wide rims. Are you going for the cover of lowrider truck mag??? They will stick out way far, which is fine if your slead pulling I guess.

I'm getting a set of 390/40/17 and they have to have 12" wheels. All I need is a steel, just something for the race track. THANKS

Masonic is getting the M&H Racemaster Drag Radials!!!! A man after my own heart. I called them direct, and they said you can mount them on a 10" rim as they said many have done it allready. Me personally, I'm sending my stock rims to Stockton to get them widened to 11". Adding 1.5" to the outside, and 1.5in to the backspacing. So they won't stick out too far.

Thats a good idea. How many bills is it going to cost you?

29x15.5 drag radials....on the rear or on all four corners. If its just for the track ..... go with smaller discs and calipers on the rear and then you can mount 16" rims of which there are alot of good choices and lots of real good drag tires for them. 4.1 rear end and 29" tires and you will be crossing the line at 100mph at 3500rpm. If you don't have a speed unlimiter then you'd be crossing the line at 88mph. ks

I was looking through an Eagle Alloy book and they have a 17x12 its the series 064 wheel. Their web site doesnt show that size but it might be worth a call. Hear is a link to their website. http://aewheel.com/eagle_alloy_wheels.cfm?id=321
