Default The Weld's 19.5's Arrived!

Finally after what seemed like forever,(since last November), my Weld's Racing 19.5's are in! These are American made, not from China, forged aluminum, and chromed. I want to think that these are the first set from Weld's since last fall. All the local dealers as well as Rickson's couldn't even get them yet. I was on back order from Ronsrims.com

This is about the only route I could go in upgrading the size of my tires without using spacers between the rears. I'll likely go with 265/70/19.5's which is about 34" tall, by 10" wide. These tires will be commercial tires grade with a "G" load rating.

Unfortunately, now I'm waiting on Rickson to make and send me 3 steel inners. I misstakenly thought that they had them on the shelf, but no, they make them to order. About 2 to 3 weeks to come in.

Good things are worth waiting for!

The rears........


and the fronts.........

Those are almost too pretty to put on the truck. Maybe the living room with a piece of glass on them for a coffee table.

Those wheels are gonna be FREGGIN sweet on your truck. The only thing I dont like, is that they are not on mine. By the way, would you consider selling your stock wheely's. I want to convert my 06 to a dually and could sure use em.

Sure, I think that we can work something out. In January, I just replaced the original tires with Michelins. They currently have less than 10,000 miles on them, and the spare has less than 100 miles on it. Everything is in good shape, beauty rings and caps are scratch free.

Where are you located? I'm in Covington, LA, just north of New Orleans. I hope the logistics will work out. Shipping might be cost prohibitive.
