I bought the truck used and it came with those wheels the guy got it from the dealer that way I checked the vin with the dealer. The guy at the dealer said I have a glorified work truck, it's a SLT with a Hemi and the power drivers seat and a CD player 4x4. i'm looking for a set of 20" newer style wheels 06-09 style.

Thanks for the comments

The engine has nothing to do with wheel choice. You can get chrome 20's with a 4.7, the 17" styled steel ones with a Hemi, ect. Your truck looks great, btw.

In 08, the SLT had standard 17" wheels until you got the SPORT, BigHorn/LoneStar, or Laramie options. Then you got the 20" wheels.

I agree, but, he has an 2004 hemi. And if im not mistaken, they didnt have those specific wheels till a year or two later(currently on his truck). The had some kind of chrome 17"s and yes you are right about a 4.7 or a 5.7 having chrome 20"s. I might be wrong, but i havent seen an 04 hemi with those kind of wheels.

Anyways, Regert, I wasnt dissing your truck. Well, to your post, why does your truck sound like a diesel? What exhaust system do you have?

The engine sounds that way, I have a thread on it on here some where. I have cat back exhaust and HID's and aftermarket stereo system but thats all I've done to this truck so far. Need to get the engine replaced before a do any mods. As you know the stealer will blame me if I had a cold air intake on it for the way the engine sounds. I just put HID's in my fogs last night and wow there bright, I have 55w 8500 artic blue in the headlights and 35w 8500 artic blue in the fogs. I like but on comers they dont like to much.
