The first posted rims are the ones that his R/T should have. The second ones you posted come from 01 and up. The style hes got is from 97-00. Another thing i noticed is that his mirrors arent the stock elephant 6x9's or the 5x7's, they look like from 01 and above. I wonder if he got jipped on something?
