New wheels and tires on! (Pics!) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

shopking72 · 05-08-2012, 01:06 PM

Been wanting to get some wheels for a while now. Worked a deal with my brother who bought these for his truck a long time ago, but he never got them mounted because his friend wrecked his truck. Long story short.

Torq Thrust II. 20x10 in the rear with 295/35/20 and 18x8.5 255/40/18 in the front with Nitto Invo tires. Let me know what you think!

Up at The Tire Store getting ready.

One on the rear mounted! (thats not my oil)

Thats better!

that truck looks sharp , but when you put those rims on it took it to the next level, good choice

Very nice!

Very nice truck. Your truck gives me the impression of smooth cleanliness. Now you just need some one piece windows.

I like the fuel filler door. If I didn't know any better, I'd think it was stock.

Thank you. Are you talking about the rear window? I like the sliding window better

Looks great!

original-71 · 05-08-2012, 06:45 PM

maybe its just me, but i always think a nice pair of wheels brings out the trim more on our trucks. NICE CHANGE
