I got some 20" Vorsteiner VR601's wrapped with 35x12.5 Falken At4's today. Very, very happy with the look. I've only got 5 miles on them so full driving impressions will come later; but they feel quite a bit firmer than the old ones and a decent amount more road noise - still acceptable though. The lighting isn't great in the pics, happy to take more for those interested. Happy to answer any questions!

Looks good. Glad you’re happy. :)

I’m old school and like contrasting wheels and sidewall on an off road truck.

I plan on going with the same (almost) setup with 18” wheels. When my stock tires wear out.

The falkens will get loud after about 12,000 miles

Nice wheel, how is the handling after the swap. Compared to my last 1500 that had 20's this 18" OEM combination feels a bit mushy. Im prob going to go with Michelin Defender LTX M/S 2 35X12.50R20 to get rid of the road noise at a later date.

Ride is definitely firmer and handling is "sportier" for sure. It's just right IMO. I will also say the Falkens have virtually zero road noise now that they are worn in with some miles.
 
is that a mobile tire shop???
 
Looks great! I like that wheel choice quite a bit.

Yessir i've used them many times - they've got all the mounting/balancing equipment built into the van. Super convenient!

ps. i like the wheel choice

Can you share the wheel specs? offset, width, etc? Getting ready to place an order for a white 2026 RHO and love the way your truck is setup!
 
tbolts10 said:
Thanks! Yes they are 20x9's with 0 offset. Here's the link - they are insanely cheap right now https://vorsteiner.com/products/20-vr-601-mystic-black?variant=46499594600618

Thanks for the quick response. I can’t believe how inexpensive those wheels are right now. I was looking at the Vossen HF6-4 that are 20x9.5 et15 but I really like the look and price of the Vorsteiners on your truck. Are you still happy with them? Any rubbing issues? I don’t want a wheel that sticks out past the fender…hate that look. Are your wheels pretty flush with the fender well? Any additional pics you can share would be greatly appreciated.

Sure thing! This is actually my 3rd set of Vorsteiners, they've all been great. You really can't beat the price especially considering they are only 29 pounds. My only complaint is the clear coat on the center caps is starting to flake so I am going to see if they will warranty them.

The 0 offset is absolutely perfect IMO. Sits flush with the fender - looks aggressive but not bro truck poke. No rub at all - Here's a few more pics.

Does the truck ride much different than the stock wheels? Do you have any suspension mods done or is it factory? Also, what made you go with this tire choice? I am also looking at the Nitto Ridge Graplers and the Toyo AT III. Any idea which one would be the most quiet and smooth ride while having a good appearance?

Any pics of forged blue with silver rims black just seems to blend in to much

Love your wheels. Unfortunately, per Vorstein, the VR601 has been replaced with the VR601 BL - which has a big fake beadlock ring around it, and an additional 7 lbs. Sucks. Thought i had found something i like other than $800 Vossens.
