Vaughn Gittin Jr's first Bronco Raptor mod! RTR EVO 6 Wheels

Vaughn Gittin Jr. recently took delivery of his BRaptor and before he took it for its first drive, we installed a set of 17x9 +18 RTR EVO 6 Wheels in Satin Charcoal with a set of 37x12.5R17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Check out the images below to see how they look on the new BRaptor!

Those are good looking wheels.

man those wheels look good!

OP .. I know Vaughn travels alot. The next time he is away, can you remove the spare and weigh it? PLEASE?



Also I am ready to buy 2 sets. May I have a discount?

@RTR Vehicles How is the offset compared to stock?

Almost looks like there ET +18 sit a bit more flush (out) with the fenders

I believe the OEM wheels are +34 so 34-18=16mm

So 16mm is the same as 0.629921 inches so these wheels will stick out 0.629921 inches when compared to the OEM wheels.

Has anyone definitively confirmed the offset on the stock Braptor wheels?

These are great looking wheels, but Im not comfortable going any wider at the wheels.

I have tried to confirm BUT no go. Ford list the wheels as 17x8.5 and that is it.

I am 95% sure they are +34 and this is why.

- all F150 Raptor wheels are +34
- there is one exception. GEN3 37" wheel package, the wheels are +30

Watch the video below at the 27.45 min mark, as the engineer infers that the Warthog is +34.

BTW, +18 is good. Most aftermarket wheels for the F150 is 0 offset. Innov8 race wheels will custom build you a forged wheel (+25 offset) at about $900 each and they are not hub-centric and center caps are extra

I can see if we can grab it but it will be wheel / tire combo, not dismounted wheel only weights on the stock BRaptor wheel.

Nice find.

If Gen 3 37's are +30 offset though, why wouldnt they have kept it the same for the Braptors?

Here is to hoping more companies (like Fifteen52) start offering offsets other than ET 0. I want bronze wheels with a black lip, but im not willing to go out much further (these ET 18's look perfect to me)

Good job RTR

Waiting to see what the fun haver wheels look like before I make my decision.

Excellent question. Like the F150 Raptor, the Warthog has 3 weeks options so to make them all +30 would require whoever is making these wheels to modify the tooling for 2 wheels (1st option and 2nd option) BUT doing them all at +34 will require only adjusting the tooling for 1 wheel >> the 3rd option.

BTW .. these wheels are 95% identical to the F150 Raptor wheel. I hope this make sense.

Also, the F150 Raptor was engineered to run 35s and 37s offsets where the Warthog was only to run 37s. The difference in F150 Raptor was in the wheel offset.
