Pic one, without the spinners, kinda reminds me of the rod-lite series. Pic 2 looks like a suv wheel and I just don't like pic three on our trucks.......Jerry

Pic two, but only on dropped trucks. I do agree on 17" or larger.

Pic 1, all the way. Don't care what size...I've been wanting a set of those since the day they came out. Maybe someday...

What kind of wheels are those (Pic 2 and 3)? I have been trying to find some 6 lug rims. What website did you find those on?

The first wheel is a Cragar wheel, The second wheel is a Centerline wheel and the third is a new Wheel Vintiques wheel. Just go to websites to hem.

What with the drop and all, and assuming you aren't wanting old school, I like 2, but then my favorite on these trucks . For old school look, I'd go with the crager, then the Wheel Vintique.

Five spokes rule on these trucks. My all time favorite is the Torq Thrust II from American Racing.

Number 1 without the spinners. I think they take away from the actual wheel.
