Wheel/tires pic and specs...

I am looking at picking up a set of boss 338 in the gunmetal... For cost reasons and quite frankly because our roads suck here in Oklahoma, I am leaning towards either a 17 or 18" rim... Having said that, that doesn't mean I am stuck on the boss... Post a pic of your rims and let me know what you recommend for the c-10. If it matters, here is mine to give a visual... (Going to sell the drag set up that is on there)

Your truck looks great like it is. I really like the setup you have on it now.

Re: Wheel/tires pic and specs...

Thank you, I appreciate it. The set up is very 'drag' and my personality is more cruise... They are practically brand new m/t street radials...

Your truck looks awesome! That is the look I am trying to go for.. I love it! Nice and thanks for the info...if I have room, I will probably go the route you have!

Re: Wheel/tires pic and specs...

If I had it to do over again I would probably put a tire on the rear that was a touch taller. I like my vehicles to have a little more of a hotrod rake to them.

Re: Wheel/tires pic and specs...

You might check out some of Tommy's posts in the vendor sales forum "ksbrktracer". He sells the Boss wheels but also has similar style wheels like Ridler 695 and Showwheel Streeters. Each wheel has its own thread. Not sure how much shipping would be on a set of wheels from Tulsa to Edmond, but it may be worth a road trip to save a little. He usually has some factory blems for sale that are not even noticeable for a cheaper price. I've pretty much decided to drive up and see him when the time comes. Oh and on size my opinion is 20x8.5 and 20x10s. They just fit the look of these trucks.
