This is the way
That was my first option, but can’t find a decent set under $2500 anywhere.
Unfortunately I just don’t like the look of them, or almost any aftermarket wheels for that matter. I just kind of held my nose and went with the vectors.
Which btw, does anyone have a link to an impact spline socket that works on these lugs? I can’t stand using the POS socket that came with the wheels.
Bumping for posterity with an answer to my own question.
Anyone with these wheels should have this. My impact wrench can now take the lugs off with no issue.

This key did not fit the lug nuts that Icon sent me. The ones I got are 7 spline. I’ve ordered a couple sockets to see if they work.
Guess they changed their lug nuts. Here's my six spline from vector 5s bought in April.

What did you do to make these fit? Looks great
How are you liking the 295 ko3? I am thinking of getting the same size7 months after ordering they finally are in my possession.
5 wheels/tires with BFG KO2s in 295/70/17 easily fit in the back of a 100 series.
PS rear is a new 295/70, while the DS rear has the old 275/70/18. The 295/70 is definitely a bit fatter and looks a little taller too, even though they are the same diameter on paper.
All mounted up. I feel like this is a pretty good tire/wheel combo for size and offset. Offset is about perfect, I would not want them to stick out any more. Minimal heat gun work on the front of the front fender liner, with mud flap removal. Rears stuff just fine.
It's about time to do some camping/towing/wheeling and break those Kings in.
No spacer up front? Truck seems to sit pretty level
They were ok, looked a little undersized on the 200. I just changed them out to 305 70 17s and really like them better. They look more proportional and still fit really well. Load range F though so a little stiff but they still ride fine. I beat up the sidewall of the 295s after just 1 week in Moab so we'll see how these do.
Other considerations...a 295 still fits in the factory spare location. A 305 does not.
probably going with 285/70 wildpeaks as I am on just Oem spacer
