Velgen VF5 concave wheelset

22x10.5 with +30 offset, new TPMS sensors, 305/35R-22 Lionheart LH-5 tires, mounted and balanced. Wheels were $2,400 and tires $721. I put 520 miles on them. Will sell for $1,950 FIRM. Must be local OR arrange for pick up. Located in North Richland Hills, Texas (76180)

It's going to look significantly better with a drop (lowering springs) but I wasn't lowered when these pics were taken.

Did you ever get a weight on these rims/wheels versus stock ?
No they won't fit on my scale. I have a bad back and can't lift them and stand on the scale to weigh them.

None. This is the best set up for a stock or lowered Explorer ST. Many people in this forum have used these exact specs for custom wheels.

305/40-22 will rub. You might have to go with a +35 offset. I currently run a 22x11 wheel with 285/40-22 tires with no rubbing, but the sidewalls are slightly stretched (rounded) which I actually love. I don't know the offset of the wheels though.

Thanks dude..... I've been toying with tire and wheel sizes for two days. Going over 20s...22s... trying to stay close to stock height but also having all season choices under 300 bucks each.... I'm still up in the air lol but, leaning more towards 22s. Not sure if I like the big sidewall 20 would have. I also aren't sure if I'm going to lower it so I don't want to go too short of a sidewall. We have crappy roads around here too lol.

I think Gdawgz is running a 305/40 with ~32 offset and no issues. I'm looking at a similar set up.
