Pro Comp steel wheels

I ended up ordering a set. Pro Comp 97's, 17"x9" with 4.25" backspacing. They were straight too out of the box, even though the UPS guy was a little rough with them. Mounted 37"x12.5"r17" Milestar Patagonia MT's on them and used airsoft pellets for balancing. I ran them on the street today for about 50 miles and it was smooth and quiet. I'm looking forward to getting them out in the dirt on Memorial Day weekend!!
Who did you get them from?
After one month, 4wparts had not processed the order yet so I just cancelled.
Looking for a better source
 
Right now there are 106 series 97 wheels available nationwide.
 
I got them from 4wd.com. They promote "the heep life", but they had them in 8-lug. Pics, as requested (pay no attention to the 3-4 different colors). I'll get some flex pics in the back yard tomorrow.

Oh wow, well I got them in like 5-6 days shipped to my house. Sorry if these should've gone to someone else!!!!!
 
For what it's worth the 87 series doesnt show as an active part number and it doesn't come up in searches. It might be discontinued?

You would think that they would say so before they take your money.
 
Flexed out. The 37" Xtreme Terrains I had before weren't as big as these, so I wasn't sure if I was going to have to trim the fenders. Looks like I am OK, barely.

How many ounces of BB's did you add per tire?
 
I used my gram scale in the kitchen. Bought 10,000 .2 gram BB's, put a measured 498 grams in each...comes out to about 17.5 oz.
