anyone running these Raceline wheels?? Pics... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey all. So after much deliberation of selling my truck or not to buy a Yukon, and finding nothing but junk out there, I have decided to keep it and add some style to it. I only put like 3k miles a year on it, and really have a hard time parting ways with it. I want to buy some new wheels, and was originally looking for either factory Denali 7 spokes, or other gmc rims. I found these online for a good price and threw a quick photoshop together to get an idea what they would look like. Like I said it was a quick photoshop and I am no pro. They look a little "cartoonish" but you get the idea.

Raceline Maxim, 20x8.5. Is anyone running these wheels? Also what do you all think of them? I personally like the clean lines and simplicity of them.

Thanks, Steve

I like them. Not a fan of 20s but I would run them ones for sure.

The style is great. But 20's on a non lowerd 2wd or non lifted 4wd with off road tires is absolutley horrible looking IMO.

If I keep my truck, and decide to buy them, I will probably lower it a little. I definitely wouldn't go to the extreme on lowering. I wasn't necessarily looking for 20's, but the price on these is pretty good.

Thats a great looking wheel. Just so you know there are several companies that make a similar wheel so shop your prices. Take a look in our Vendor Marketplace for some great deals on wheels.

Eagle Alloy-

Boss Wheel

Those look like the Eagle Alloy ones you posted up. I like them. Very similar to the racelines. I think the racelines are $750 for the set.

These look like the Eagle Alloy and similar to the racelines. May be the racelines are $750 for the set. I used to run these wheels near about one year ago.

i have a set of Racelines on my 68, but they are custom 2 piece billet wheels and were not cheap. However, they are nice quality.

I wanted to get a set for my 97, but they were on national backorder, so I got something else
