I'm looking for rims for my new truck, trying to figure out if there's any manufacturers that sponsor moto teams? I have a vague recollection that there was but I can't seem to find it.

Hostile wheels sponsors Reedy. That's what I've got on my truck (before they sponsored him) and I've been happy so far.

I love the way Hostiles look. Glad to hear they support the sport a little.

I put Moto Metal wheels on my truck several years ago. I believe WheelPros is the US distributor of them and they were sponsoring MX or SX at the time. They have Moto cast right into the rim so they've got that going for themCool . They're a Chinese produced wheel with a cheesy plastic center cap like most out there but they've held up ok on my 4wd work truck. I take absolutely no care of them.

Be sure to shoot them an email and let them know why you chose their product over the others.

I'm not sure if the company that makes these wheels sponsor Moto or not but they are super sweet!

Yup and agree. There is a truck running around my area that has them and they’re pure ugliness

Well I must say I haven't actually seen them on a vehicle but IMO the when itself looks sweet.

I've got Method Fat Fives on my 3/4 ton Dodge. Clean simple looking wheel fits my taste the best. They sponsor TLD which was part of the reason I bought them,

Ive got these Helo 17's on my 4 Door Tacoma and im very pleased with them ....especially when theyre clean lol the exposed aluminum isnt smooth its got like a tightly raked finish that gives off a very subtle prism gleem to them, again very subtle but it looks bitchin in the sun....dont think they sponsor any moto teams but good wheels overall.

Whatever don't get black. Nothing makes a vehicle look worse faster than black wheels. The fad came from dudes running 4 temporary spares.

Do Limo tint though. That always looks good.

On a black or white truck they loom great especially if youve got some exposed or milled out aluminum to offset it.... For my truck i thought it wodve looked good to have the white lettering showimg bec my truck is black as well as obviously the wheels....kind of a throwback look

I’ve only seen a brand or two of forged wheels that are somewhat made in the US. No cast wheels.
