Very clean wheels. As for posting all of my wheels, it's a pile of factory wheels for Fords and Chevys, plus a bunch of Crager SS's, Some Torq Thrusts, and slots. I prefer classic designs, that won't go out of style in 4 years, and I've never paid too much for any of em...

Yea i know what you mean Lee. I've had 2 sets of eagle alloy 203's, lol. I've always wanted some 212's just never ran across a deal. I like just about any polished alum. wheel, not really a chrome person.

WooooHoooo! wheels came in today! Heres a pic, they need to be polished BAD. One of them has some minor curb "check" on it, but I cant complain much for the price. The tires are 205/40/17, so I'll be putting some 225/45's on before I install on the truck. Those 205/40's are waaaay to profile, my truck would sit 1 1/2 lower than what it does now with 205/70/14's and I cant go any lower than I am.

Got these things shined up and ready for some tires, only bad thing about polishing them is now I know where ever bend, nick, and scratch are. Oh well not bad for 8 year old wheels. They shined up alot better than I thought.

There you go, got new tires today and mounted them. Trucks dirty but here is a pic, I think the wheels improved the truck alot! Those old 14's have had it. Next step is some body work. I get it clean and take some more pics later. :cool:
sweet! cant wait to see what they look like on your truck.
alright. you beat me to it....looks good!

Sorry to hear that, i am fortunate it wasnt my entire job.
my commission was cut. glad it wasn't my job! But with the commission money I could have money to do a disc brake swap. I have my rally cap on for the economy!
