Default New wheels

I just couldn't handle knowing that my wheels were plastic so I put these on.

Im not sure Im feelin the wheels. They seem too petite for such a beefy truck. The thin spokes are what kill it for me. But as long as you like them, nice job.

I went back and forth with it. I would have gone with bigger spokes if there were drums in the back. Since we have the rear disc I decided to go with a little less rotating mass.

Do they make them in chrome? How much do they cost and where did you find them? Nice.
Me too on the thin spokes, still looks good though.

I also like a meatier looking wheel.

Do they have a black with chrome or silver option on that rim?
