Key features
- Double Standard style at 17 inches in diameter

- Aluminum construction
- Black finish, with machined also named in the product name
- Zero offset with 4.75 backspacing
- Each design goes through finite element analysis and field testing.
Black finish upkeep
Black finishes show brake dust and road grime quickly, so a regular wash keeps them looking even. Rinse the spokes and the inner barrel after mud or sand runs, since trapped debris can scratch the surface over time. Dry the wheel thoroughly to limit water spots on the machined areas, and keep the cleaning routine the same from one season to the next.
Chips along the spoke edges and the lip are easy to miss, so inspect them after trail use. Touch up small chips promptly with a product made for aluminum wheels. Check lug nut torque after the first few drives on a new wheel, since a fastener that has loosened can also rub or scratch the finish.
- Rinse after mud or sand runs
- Use a soft brush on machined edges
- Inspect spoke edges for chips after trail use
