Anyone got any pics of this wheel? I'm debating them for a 18" on 35" after the leveling kit.

I like Fuel Octanes (in black), but they really only look best at 20x12, and I'm unsure of XD Addicts (in black) because I like a wheel with a lip.

I'm liking the MHT Revolver because it has the circular whole look similar to a stock or Alcoa wheel, looks better in 18" than a "spoke" style wheel and the outer lip has a nice "beadlock" appearance where as I find 90% of wheels with the chrome "bolts" look very tacky.

Anyone have any thoughts or pics to add?

Update: 325/65-18 Duratracs and 18x9" Revolvers, 4.5"BS in Machined Black should be here in a couple days.

I'm so anxious to get some real tires on my truck. I'm gonna go from these Firestones that have NO winter rating, to one of the best snow tires made, lol, I'm stoked.

Not to make you worried, but keep a good eye on the sidewall of those duratracs. I loved mine, that is until a one inch split came up in my sidewall and I lost all air in the tire after less than 3 blocks of driving. Might just have been a fluke though.

That being said, congrats! You'll love the tires. I hope mine was just a fluke.

Id like to see them with a traditional center cap - congrats on the new wheels!

I will be looking for a better center cap for sure. Especially because I need to use my Warns in the front.

I know the rubber in the Duratracs is pretty soft, compared to other MT's, so I'll keep an eye on them.

Well, just got home from getting them on. The tires are taller than I anticipated, so I do have a moderate rub on the driver side fender liner, but I can fix a little of it. Speedo is off about 8% from stock, but it has the RPM @ 110kph/70mph right around the sweet spot at 1900RPM. The Duratracs are certainly quieter and softer riding, and I can already tell they're better in snow. The wheels look better than I thought they would in 18", but I'm not in love with the center caps, so I'll do some research on others sometime.

A few pics. As you can tell, the roads here are a mess:

The offset/back spacing is perfect with my flares, but I can see I'm gonna need mudflaps again, gravel roads make me cry, lol.

Thanks guys!

Loving these tires! Also dropped my RPM @ 60mph/100kph to about 1680RPM, so empty mileage will be up I can already tell (and massive reduced tire noise vs. my old tires). These things handle snow like a snowmobile, it's just so night and day compared to my old MT's it's awesome to see all the reviews I read about these tires were true!
