Much appreciated! Thanks! Looks good!
So these are aftermarket wheels. I have the stock wheels.


Hope I can get mine, to look as good as yours...

Sweet!
But now, they're $170.00 ea.
I'm lucky I can put gas in the tank let alone buy new wheels,
So I am limited to a few cans of Krylon's Satin Black.

So much for living on Soc.Sec! As "Enron" exec's ate my pension. it
and a failing stock market, took my investments some 20 odd years ago.
I have to do almost everything myself.
My Cataracts don't help much ..either! But I'm still not giving up!
But hey, there are people out there worse off than me!

I'd always wanted to replace the wheels but didn't find the price too appetizing. When it was time for new tires, all the shops were trying to charge me for tires + install, balancing, valve stems, disposal fees, etc. I ended up buying the wheels along with new tires from Summit, which came ready to mount on the truck and didn't cost me any of that extra stuff. I then sold the old wheels with the worn but still usable tires. Didn't turn out too bad at all.
