Re: Ridler 650 wheels

I think they would be sweet on a lowered truck. Can anyone photo shop a set on one of our trucks?

They look great. I pulled the trigger on a set of Ridler 650 wheels. I will post pics as soon as the chassis gets ready.

It's kind of funny. Three years of hard labor and money into the truck and with the poverty caps it got limited attention when I was out. Only the real truck guys took notice.

I put these wheels on and everybody that sees it when I go out loses their mind.....

Re: Ridler 650 wheels

Those look identical to the US Mags Rambler wheel. The good news is they're cheap! Here's some photos of them on C10s: https://www.google.ca/search?q=us+ma...gs+rambler+c10

Re: Ridler 650 wheels

Those do look similar! A staggered set of the ridler's in 20x8.5 and 20x10 inch run about 810.00 or 890.00 for all 20x10 on eBay right no with free shipping thinking of pulling the trigger for an upcoming project.

Anyone? All of the replays above bought US Mags Ramblers. Yes it's a similar wheel but not identical. I think the Ridlers come in a more staggered offset that will result in a much shallower front wheel lip and a deeper rear wheel lip. I don't like the look of a deep front wheel lip.

Re: Ridler 650 wheels

I bought a set of 650's I will not be mounting them for a bit, but I think they look great.

Per the charts on the respective websites, the backspacing is the same.
