17.5 wheel option
Anyone have a picture of what Redwood uses for wheels and tires on the 17.5 wheel option?

Thats a good looking wheel!

For some reason I was thinking the only wheel for 17.5 was that old Alcoa wheel with the round holes. Not something I would want to go back to.

Yep Brad....... When we ordered our Redwood we opted for the Goodyear G114 H rated option & those are the wheels that they mounted them on.

Those are the ones we have ours also. It was nice that it came that way from the dealer with the 17.5" rims and G114 tires.

Ah, I can see them in your sign pic now - very nice! I couldn't see yours Mike, as all your pics have the wheels blocked or covered, but I assume they are the same.

17.5 tires and rims
Just wondering, does the 17.5 tires lower the RW lower to the ground?

But they are narrower than the 614s.

So if the G614 has an expected life of 5-7 years regardless of treadwear, what are the G6114s?
