Love the polished procomps! Ignore the cooler - my sister works for the company that owns them and I sent them a shot - they all work on the east coast and think Minnesota is like Alaska and that ice fishing is some crazy thing - but this is the lake across the street from my neighborhood...

Ha - I'll ask her I had not thought about that. We'd all probably need to agree to share a photo on some social media and tag them :facepalm: . Sorry I'm the wrong generation for that but yes - good idea I will ask.

I also didn't want the "black" look, so although they are listed as "matte black", the Fuel Beasts have a hint of a brown hue in them and compliment the Gator color very well...

And I LOVE the bronze look, even though we couldn't find a brown MDX (we went with dray grey), this was the look I envisioned for my wife's car (and still may when the new 2021 MDX comes out)...

I got the same Fuels. Looks like you went with 20s with -12 Offsets?

I still have my lights, had to take them off so it could fit in my garage, had some bad weather come through and they were preventing my truck from fitting in the garage.

Haha yeah, I was referring to the wheel color choices I was wanting.

This makes me sad, but glad you didn't take a picture of the front which no doubt would have an angry grill.
For sure! My Father in law spots that thing as he knows I'm waiting for mine to show up, you can imagine the shit he gives me with this pic!

Have really enjoyed this thread. What I keep thinking is just how busy many of these wheels are. At 60 and having been a gear-head my whole life I very early on learned not to buy busy wheels.

While they look great brand new and in photos after a wash, the reality is up close I think they'll look like half clean half dirty messes.

That said I do realize there are many new options [ceramic coating, new wash mixes] that might make cleanup a breeze. I've just always cleaned my gear by hand paying a whole lot of money for quality products [Zymol in the 80's and 90's and mainly Griots since].

So once I do get my MT Rubicon or Mohave JT I know I'll get simpler wheels, probably in black.

Looks great. Could you do me a solid if it wouldnt be too much trouble? Measure the circumference of your tire mounted at pressure?

I vaguely remember front driver side 105” and some change @35psi. For the life of me I can't find my tape measure.
