TeraFlex Delta Brakes 17" Compatible Wheel Options?

[Snuggly Ranger]

For those of you who have installed the TeraFlex Delta Brakes, can you please tell me what 17" wheels are compatible with them? I know the TeraFlex wheels work, but I would like to know some other options. I currently have Black Rhino Abrams and they do not fit. Thank you!

Do they not fit due to backspacing issues? What is not fitting? Find the specs for your wheel and compare it to the reqs for the brakes you’re using. If it’s backspacing you can get away with a wheel spacer probably but it’s not optimal. Find your wheel specs and contactTeraFlex for options. That’s your best bet.

Thank you for your advice. I have tested everything with the TeraFlex template printed true to size. It was hitting the wheel slightly. Although this was minimal, I confirmed with TeraFlex that there is no room for play with the template and my wheels will not work. Here are some photos for others to reference of what will not work. For those of you who have installed these brakes can you please tell me what has worked for you. Thank you.

I have Fuel Zephyrs with -12 offset and ran 37’s on my old 2020 JTR Gaser with the Teraflex Deltaforce Big Brake Kit!! I have the brakes. They’re now on my 2022 JTRD with 35’s! Great question as I’ve been wondering which wheels I could upgrade and switch too! I have a set of winter Wheels with my studded tires on them, but with have to find out which wheels they are and get back to you all! The Zerphyrs look nice, but they don’t drain melted snow in the winter time and can freeze causing an out of balance wheel if you don’t clean it out before driving back onto pavement, so they can be a bit high maintenance!

The inside diameter of the inner wheel is often too small to accommodate the oversized calipers! The extra backspacing in for turning at full lock and not hitting the frame with larger tires and is not affecting the brakes.

That's a really wide center. Most wheel will fit. My dirty life bead locks fit with plenty of clearance.
I would go to a wheel store and bring home a wheel of your choice and see if it fits.
