Hemtt wheels or combat wheels

I was just wondering what most people prefer when they single their 5ton wich ever model it may be. Also what should a person pay for combat wheels and hemtt wheels.

I prefer the look of the HEMTT wheels. I bought 6 wheels when I picked up the M818 (no tires yet) I paid $50 per wheel but that was only days after they were being dumped into the market when guys where buying them in lots of 12 for less than what I paid for 6.

Something to think about. HEMMT wheels will require some work to fit on the front. (longer studs) The combat wheels will go right on without any extra work.

i have found some combat wheels for 125 each and didn't know if that was a reasonable price. also dont know much about combat wheels. I have recentered Hemtt wheels on my deuce and they are pretty simple. Are the combat wheels the same? also are the combat wheels for tubless tires?

Combats and Hemtt's have a slightly different offset. With the comabt rim, the outside of the tire is flush with the fender. The hemtt rim will put the tire edge just outside the fender.
