Has anyone heard of any 18/8 or 18/7 steel wheels? I have the factory 18's and some "knock off" 16's from a passport/rodeo, but I wanted to know if anyone sells 18 steels. My tire guy informs me that 3 of my alloys are bent.. he can balance them but can't guarantee they will stay. That was what he did, and they are off again. I am pretty hard on my tires/rims and I would like 18 inch steel ones as they would be stronger. Any ideas? Also the reason for steel would be the price.. I bought my 16's for $40-$50 each..

Go 16s with a taller sidewall tire which will give your wheel a little more protection when wheeling hard. Just my 2 cents.

No, I have 16 steels for the off road tires.. but the stock 18's bend easy but I like the low profile, I don't care about the bling so much... I just want the on road traction of my kumho tires on a 18 inch steel wheel
