Default Ruger Wheels Info?

I never heard of Ruger wheels until today, when I saw a car for sale (C4S) with Ruger R10 wheels. They look really nice, but I know nothing about them. I found some on their eBay store, and given that the price for 4 wheels including new Toyo tires is about $2400, I assume they may not be very good, or else very heavy, or both. They only show 8.5" and 10.5" widths (I don't know what is on the C4S).

Help me, are these made in other sizes suitable for C4S, and are they any good?

Are you preferring to this type of wheel? Ruger is one of many names for this wheel. 8.5/19 is 25 and 10.5/19 is 28. Quality is OK. You can contac a reseller in Torrance. He can get you this wheel with Toyo Proxes 4 front 235/35/19 and rear 295/30/19 for about $2150 included tax.

The ones I saw were a style more similar to the Champion R5G, with 10 Y-spokes. Is the price you stated applicable to a set of 4 wheels with tires? That seems to suggest the wheels are worth about $250 each, vs roughly $1000 each for Champions, Kinesis, etc. I presume they wouldn't be forged for that price, and likely heavy. I'm not looking to buy the wheels, I'm wondering what they are worth on a car I'm looking at (to purchase) that has them.

They are not forged wheel. As I stated wheel/tire package price. I don't know about the R5G. You can contact "Get your wheels" for weight. 888-250-9074
