✅ Rim inner diameter: 398 mm
✅ Material: High-Strength Steel
✅ Finish: Raw / Blank Finish (Perfect for custom powder coating, painting, or chrome)

Aggressive Rear Stance: The 17" x 4.5" configuration bridges the gap between traditional setups and modern fat-tire builds, delivering a solid, muscular rear look.

Finishes: We offer raw blanks, mirror-polished finishes, or professional powder coating (Gloss Black, Matte Black).
