Does anybody run them?

With the availability of rhino products out there new and used these seem like a good idea since the cat has a pretty non popular size.

Theres a set of skat trak 7 paddle haulers that I have been watching in the rhino bolt pattern.

id run a 8 paddle

I have been running them for three years now for the wheels that use with my nobbies.Nobody had a nice looking wheel in the AC bolt pattern yet.There were plenty of nice wheels in the rhino bolt pattern though.If they are similar adapters to what i have you get one inch spacers out of the deal too.
I guess the question is the cost of the adapters plus the cost of the rhino bolt pattern tires and wheels gonna be cheaper than just buying a AC bolt pattern set?

I figured if I was going to run a 1.5in adapter anyway, might as well make it a rhino pattern where I can find wheels and tires for a lot less. I guess it will depend if I can find AC wheels at a good price.

who sells the cheapest

Who has the cheapest 1.5" adapter to Rhino bolt pattern?

 

[Desertcat]

Rick,
I purchased the tires and rims from Sandchris. The rims are doughlas and they are the AC bolt pattern. I believe he got them from Xtreme tire co. They have opened up a new company called GO GO performance and they sell them.

[GlamisProwler]

thanks I will Google them.

I found these which are way pricey

HiPer Racing Wheels - Product Catalog

I also found some Douglas at SDHQ so far for a good price

SUPERDUTY HQ - Wheels

 

[GlamisProwler]

I just got the Douglas rock stars with 8 paddles and buffs up front.
Got a killer deal on 12x7 5x2 offset wheels. My only concern is the 7 inch wide rear wheel, I wanted a 10 inch or 8 inch rear wheel??? what do you think?

they also have a 4mm spacer that will help with the caliper

The prcie was so good I ordered up.

Go Go Performance, no web site just yet, they are working on it.

I went basic and light.

 

[GlamisProwler]

looks like I got the same ones

are your 5x2 offset

or 4x3 offset

 

[Desertcat]

Dune tire setup (sizes, offsets and such)
Rear tires- 7 paddle skat trak, Lumber Jack carcass 25X12-10
Rear wheel- Douglas blue label, 6061 .125, Offset 3" inside 6.5" outside. 8"
wide 10" diameter rim

Front tires- Smooth Buff 2 ply Cheng shin 25X10-12
Front wheel- Douglas red label 6061 .190
Rim came with 2" outside off set a and 5" inside. Valve stem plugged and
relocated so the rim could be flipped. So the finished rim will have 2"
inside off set and 5" outside.

This is the details on my set up from Chris. She runs good for a stocker. Really woke her up in the dunes.

 

[GlamisProwler]

just got my whole setup for under $550 wheels and tires. I am really happy with the price. that includes shipping btw.

I also got the 4mm spacers, these slide right over the stock lug nuts and are less than 1/4 inch so they should not stress the spindles to much. And I dont have to grind the calipers. I also went with 5x3 off set. I will post pics when I get them.

[Mustanggeek]

Thanks for the info.

 

[GlamisProwler]

I did catch a special on the rims, so normal prices might be a little bit more.

Great news Rick, looking forward to some pictures. Tim still ownes Xtreme and just started Go Go Performance. They are great guys with more sand tire knowlege than guy can take in.

soooo dumb azz question here , any disadvantage to running a smaller rhino rim ??

not talking wheel looks here just rim to handling

and another ?? are the steel rims off another model 14" ?? ...... if they are does anyone have a steel set to sell ?

 

[GlamisProwler]

You might loose some top end by going smaller diameter. You will also loose some side wall on the 14inch rim. And I felt like I needed more side wall to get the ride I am looking for.

Here is a pic of my new rims and paddles shipped in two days to my house. I am stoked!!!

the wheels weigh 7 Lbs with no rubber of course, but that is pretty dam light and thats what I was looking for,
