summitracing has cragar soft 8's for like 50 bucks each. american racing has some others that will fit the 6x4.5 bolt pattern. just make sure its that bolt pattter, and good luck finding them. KMC also has a few i think.

I'm looking to get some as well and these are what I'm looking at...

They have them in chrome too which I think would look good with the black.

Thats the right bolt pattern and they're 16's which would fit your truck but it has 15s stock. Actually the 15s are cheaper too.

black wheels on a black vehicle looks terrible IMO. Chrome or gunmetal.

and BTW i hope you plan on powder-coating the centercaps of those Cragers. they rust really fast.

Really? I know a couple friends with them and they have no rust on them... One of them has had that for a few years driving in snow/rain/mud ect.

And I think black looks good on a black truck but chrome would look good too. They make that same rim in chrome.

is it just me or does it seem like most of the rims our trucks came with tend to lose little pieces, with exception to a few.

Personally if I owned a black truck I would have to black it all out but thats just me. What size wheels do you have now?
