So if anyone read my Nightmare with a major tire chain thread.. you will know I had some brand new Fuel Hostages (20x9 +20 offset) that I had installed, but where damaged (all 4) by the installer.

To make it right, this chain has given me a go on replacing my wheels, only problem is they cannot get them for at least 6 weeks. So they said I can choose any wheel I want or choose to wait. They said "price does not matter."

So now its decision time.

I was looking at the Fuel Throttle black or the Fuel Nutz black & machined... as you can see I like the look of the Fuel's. After searching all day and not being able to make a decision I wanted to get the opinion of the crowd on either what I have listed, or suggestions.

Don't bother with the Nutz in a +20mm. I want a set for my truck and the places I've tried all called MHT and said the +20mm are on backorder and no ETA. They do have +1mm available. Unfortunately for me, the Nutz are the only Fuel wheel I like and I think will look good on my truck.

From one f150 owner to another, I would really like to see you rolling on some fuel mavericks. I think you'd be happy.

I should add, next mod is vinyl, either the silver pn the bumpers and some PTM silver oem flares to do a king ranch silver look, or black over the 2 tone to go all black

I would go with mavericks or octances. My favorite is the hostage but, I understand you don't want to wait.

just to let you know the throttles are on backorder (at least they were a few weeks ago) so if you want your wheels soon you might have to settle for the kranks like I did

I know I'm in the minority, but I still think the Raptor wheels are the best looking ones I've seen. Just my $.02
