First owner took pioneer up a rock slide and scratched the stock deluxe wheels up pretty good.
Rustoleum primer + paint sail blue is a very close match to the 2017 Honda blue. Since I have lots of lockdown time on my hands, I decided to give the wheels a refurb.

Thanks for all the positive comments!

I see some pretty deep cuts in the stock bighorn 2.0 but they all hold air pressure and are just wearing to the cuts in the lugs at 1300 miles.

When its time to replace them, I will prob go to a more all terrain or better wearing on hard surfaces. I like how some have moved up to 10" wide in front which doesn't require new A-Arms.

Still on the lookout for a set of LE wheels + tires as I like that wheel style and I could carry one as a spare. Right now i just carry a plug kit and power port air pump.

I also need to verify this. The le caps are half the price as delux caps.
I picked up a set of LE wheels on Craigslist. I can confirm that the rubber LE caps DO NOT fit the Deluxe wheels. Limited Edition wheel has a much smaller hub hole where the rubber Honda cap goes vs the large Deluxe wheel center hub hole.

I wonder if Honda Car wheel caps would fit? You can get a set of 4 for less than the price of 1 Deluxe Pioneer wheel cap.
