I say either polished soft 8s or 3rd gen factory alloys.

The frack is a soft 8?

I'm looking for third gen wheels. Just don't know how they look with bigger tires

These are on a third gen, but the look is the same:

I prefer the third gen chrome clad steel. However. I like those soft 8s too. Wonder what they would look like on my deep patriot blue truck? How pricey are they

I think they'd look good. Now, Soft 8 is the generic name coined by Cragar, you can get other brands cheaper.

Yep. Might be able to find another brand and get them cheaper. But that's up to you on that obviously.


Chrome or polished I think would look good too.

You know, Merc HAD a set of polished or whatever Soft 8s at one point....

85 bucks is pretty cheap for a wheel really. Especially when the tires are on dad

damnit the caps aren't included

I genuinely might get those, the third gen just looked weird with big tires.

The caps might not work on that D60 rear anyhow. Dunno how big they are.
