Yes the vehicle gets 2 centimeters higher iwth the 45 tire profile and overally 4 centimeters larger wheel. The speedometer shows 4.83% false speed and mileage, for example when speedometer shows my speed 100 kmph, the real speed of my beast is 105 kmph. And else, with higher tire profile the ride is not as hard)

 

I LOVE that look of black on black and the bar looks really good. You now have your own personal NSA vehicle, ha ha.

 

HA HA ! Pay backs will be two fold my friend!

 

haha thanks))))

 

OK, so the XO's came drilled back into the spoke to get it to the 5x5. That wouldn't have been bad except they didn't smooth the edge so it was chewed up from the drill. Needless to say, I sent them back. Apparently they ruined two of them trying to fix the problem. So...I'm not getting those wheels. I like the Lexani R03's and they just started making them in a 22x9. The dealer, Element Wheels, agreed to switch them for the Lexani's. I know there are a few folks here that have them and they seem happy with them. Please let me know your thoughts...

 

Or this one:



Not sure which one so need opinions...

 

I vote for #2

Where the pics of the screwed up wheels?

 

I like the 1st rim's COLORS - black with chrome shades
but the design of the 2nd rim is better on my opinion. And that LEXANI logo kind of inside the rim looks originallt and better than on the edge like the 1st rim.

Both rims are very good but if you ask me personally, i would not choose "Star" rims (rims with just 5 strips) for an SUV. Durango is big and those rims have too many free space. I just guess it would look empty...

By the way i was going to purchase these rims (2Crave No.7):
but they were not in stock. If you like them may be you would change your mind?
Hope i did not make it hard for you) I mean if you are really into those Lexani rims, which are great of course, then don't listen to me)

 

I went with the black and machined in 22x9 (the second ones). I'm more of a 5 spoke kind of guy. Multiple spokes that curve "backwards" aren't my thing. I'm also not really a fan of the center caps that cover the lugs. Just personal preference I guess. Then again, you won't see me put caliper covers on the truck either. I'll paint the calipers red before I put those wheels on it because you'll see them, but I just can't get into the look of covers for the brakes. Don't get me wrong, if I had a big set of Brembo's on there that would be awesome, but I won't spend the money for those on an SUV...

 

Anyone know what the widest tire we can run in the rear?
