I am starting to really like that wheel design!

With how aggressive the offset is, are you concerned with rock chips on the rocker panel and rear bumper?

I've had cars in the past with aggressive offsets like that; destroyed my paint

Me too. It seems a lot of companies are having a hard time dialing in the proper offsets on these B9 cars. Especially for the front.
I made sure when I ordered mine that it would clear the brakes while not poking past the fender, and still have concavity.

On-topic TJ!

My Gloss Gunmetal S17-01s are for sale. They have about 250 miles on them now, mounted mostly for photos. Mine are slightly less aggressive, 20x10 ET29 (vs rinjah's 20x10.5 ET30). I love this wheel, and didn't plan to change out so quickly ... but Vossen contacted me about showcasing another wheel on my car (they liked how the S17-01 was getting attention) and offered me a modest discount. So ... I'll be running a new wheel in a month or two (currently in production, but I'll wait for Spring). In fact, I have a set of VMRs coming next week that I plan to use for winter duty, and will run those until it's nice enough out for the Vossens (then again come winter, of course). :-P

DM or email me if interested.

Yes they're the demo set from TAG. Love the "aggressive" look of the wheel. I'll monitor for and exterior damage but sine the majority of my excursions will be limited to slow island driving I should be good.
