Default looking for new rims

Hey i was looking for new rims and i was wondering what the bolt pattern is of our stock rims? I was thinking of purchasing the black cragar soft 8s. I was also thinking of painting the lip red whenever i do get them. What do you all think of that?

6x4.5

you should get your stock rims powder coated black, I think that would look sweet.

I don't know. I'd just rather have different rims. I like the stock rims...but more for the original color. I just want something new. I think new 32" BFG A/T tires (most likely), on the 16" black cragars with a red lip would look awesome. It'll definately be a lot easier to clean. I have a hard time getting the inner part of the spokes clean.

Make sure they make them in that lug pattern first. You will be surprised how hard it can be finding the wheels you are looking for in our lug pattern.
