Any Experience With Fuel Wheels?
Who has Fuel wheels on their rig?
I may be in the market for some wheels in the not so distant future and came across a design of theirs that I like.
I had never heard of them. The price seems a little low. Maybe I have just over paid in the past...
Any information would be greatly appreciated! Maybe a picture or two...

Whatever you do, don't go with the chrome. I originally had the chrome 20x12 Fuel Octane (deep) wheels and I went through 3 sets in a year. Mine kept pitting on the inside within months of having them and I keep my truck clean weekly. I ended up finding out from my local 4wheel shop that the chrome plating they are using now days is crap compared to the way it was done years ago. I now have the black 20x12 Fuel Hostage (deep) wheels and I love them. I am actually currently looking into upgrading to the 22x12 wheels instead of the 20's though haha.

I actually have the fuel Hostage D351 on my truck, mine are D351 20x10 01 offset, with a 5in backspacing on 33x12.5R20 terra grapplers! I love the way they look, they stick out passed my wheel wells about ¾ in, just enough to give it a more aggressive stance. 
Go take a look at my pictures, i have a few of them on their.

Pic of my old 20x12 chrome Fuel Hostage wheels (2nd set) that I had only a month after being mounted and they were already pitting.
I got those replaced with these 20x12 chrome Fuel Hostage wheels before they ended up doing the same thing.
Now I am rocking the 20x12 Fuel Hostage in black. After having these for about 6 months now I will never look back. Powder coat wheels is the way to go in my honest opinion.
