Under normal and reasonable use, wheels produced by fuel off-road wheels are warranted against structural defect in material as long as the original owner/purchaser owns the wheels. Under normal and reasonable use, wheels produced by fuel off-road wheels are warranted against defect in workmanship or materials to the original owner/purchaser for a period of one year from the date of purchase.

This warranty is limited to the repair or replacement of wheels, at the discretion of fuel off-road wheels, for any wheels determined to be defective and covered under warranty.

Installation instructions

Read completely before attempting to mount tires on wheels

1) Trial fit all wheels to the vehicle before mounting tires to ensure the wheel is properly matched to the lug pattern and there is adequate caliper clearance. Never force a wheel to seat against the hub by applying lug nut pressure. The wheel must go into place freely. Clear the axle flange of obstructions such as rivets, guide pins, screw fasteners or spring steel keepers before installing wheels.

2) Mount tires in compliance with directions and practices recommended by the manufacturer of the tire mounting equipment. Fuel off-road wheels will not assume responsibility for damage due to improper or careless mounting practices.

3) Warning! Do not use spacers to resolve any clearance problems. If spacers are installed, installer and/or user bear all responsibility.

4) Check for excessive stud length. Excessive stud length will bottom out a closed end lug nut, preventing the wheel from being properly torqued to the mounting surface on the drum or disc.

5) Use only use fuel off-road approved lug nuts.

6) Do not inflate the tire in excess of 60 p.s.i. (40 p.s.i. in california) in order to seat the tire bead on the wheel. If the tire will not seat at these pressures, check for unusual obstructions, proper use of tire mounting lubricants or a possible tire/wheel mismatch.

7) Tighten lug nuts in a progressive criss-cross pattern. Impact wrenches are not recommended due to the possibility of irregular or improper tightening. Owner’s manual recommended lug nut torque specifications should be followed.

8) User must return to the installer at 25 miles and 100 miles to re-check lug nuts for proper torque.

9) Stud penetration into the threaded portion of the lug nut should be in excess of the diameter of the stud. Studs should be free of rust and dirt. Threads on the stud should be undamaged and free of lubricant.

10) Use tire manufacturer’s rim width recommendations for wheel and tire selection. Fender clearance should be checked before mounting more than one tire.

11) Check for proper fender and caliper clearance and true rotation of all wheels before driving your vehicle. Turn the front wheels side to side to check for possible interference. Clearance should be checked while the vehicle is on the rack as well as after the weight of the vehicle is lowered on to the suspension. Drive the vehicle as reduced speed (10 mph) as a final check against interference.

12) Keep wheels clean. The chrome, clear coat or aluminum finish will be damaged if foreign material, brake dust, dirt or chemicals are not removed promptly. Never clean wheels when they are hot! Clean wheels regularly with mild soap and water only. The finish of your wheels may be permanently damaged by caustic soap used on some commercial car washes. Any abrasives, steel wool or chemicals applied to your wheels may damage the finish.
