I emailed Eric last year about Crager steel wheels, he didn't seem to <br>think it would be a good idea and said I should buy my wheels from a <br>Pantera Vendor. Something about not being hub-centric, but then <br>again, Bud ran steel wheels last year without a problem, including <br>passing tech. I honestly thought Cragers were going to be my answer.<br><br>Asa Jay<br><br>Quoting Mad Dog Antenucci <<a ymailto="mailto:teampantera@yahoo.com" href="mailto:teampantera@yahoo.com">teampantera@yahoo.com</a>>:<br><br>> I'm not sure about offsets either but Crager sells or used to sell <br>> steel 17x8 or<br>> 17x9"wheels....check Summit availability.
