Default Moto Metal

I was just at sears and they are selling the Moto Metal M0951 wheels for $103 bucks a piece. They are nice looking wheels, and they are available in 8 Lug for our trucks, but I am seeing them everywhere around here. I have seen 4 sets in 1 day on thursday. 2 of them belong to people in my unit. I need wheels because of my back spacing issue. Should I wait and get the ones I want, or should I be like everyone else and get these ones?

I like both of them. It comes down to what you like. I have the stocker aluminum wheels, there are probably 100,000 sets of them out there. Who cares? Not me!

I like the stockers as well. I dont want to get different wheels, but I have wheel rub, and I dont want wheel spacers. Once I get the new wheels, I will be selling the stock wheels. Anyone looking for a set of stock 2008 Forged Aluminum 17 inch Wheels? Sell em to someone on here cheap, because I like you guys. Probably $400 Bucks.

I know your into probably into black wheels, but check these out, haven't seen too many of these if at all.

and by the way you can get pretty much any wheel with whatever offset/ backspacing you need, you just usually need to specify.

Yeah I like black wheels. I don't like chrome at all on the never vehicles. Chrome belongs on classic cars and trucks. Stock chrome. 56 Cadillac front bumper. Beautiful. Thats when the chrome was real. Its all Bs now days.

I like the stocker rims on your truck too. So either new wheels or live with the drawbacks of wheel spacers.

New wheels is the better way to go. I want all black, so I might as well. I will get them soon. I will use the government rebate money to get them.
