I need your help
The truck is out of the body shop and I'm ready for a new set of rims. I just found out that the rims that I've wanted on my truck are no longer being produced. I'm now back to square 1......
My truck is a 1971 3/4 ton 2wd truck that is lifted on 33 x 16.5 x 9.75 wheels. www.cardomain.com/id/pooz911 If anyone has any suggestions on what wheels look "KILLER" with my body style truck, please let me know. These were the wheels I was interested in. (no longer in production) appearantly the company changed hands 4 years ago. http://store.racerwheel.org/wafx-100.html Thanks, Jim Last edited by pooz911; 03-24-2006 at 04:54 PM. |

Re: I need your help
Try American Diamondback. Thats whats going on mine. They are almost like the ones you wanted and have the rightr back spacing.
My 2 cents worth

Re: I need your help
Looks to me like you can order right from the link you sent. Unless I missed something which is completely possible.

Re: I need your help
I was playing 20 questions w/ the company when I was requesting avail. on those rims. The first e-mail answer they gave me was "they're not available" and that was it. 2nd e-mail stated "no longer available". I e-mailed afx alloys and asked them if they had any in stock and got the reply "no". I had to call and talk to the same guy that e-mailed me and finally got the answer I should have gotten all along. they are no longer in production as of 4 years ago when the company was bought out and they are only using their name now.
I don't know why they still have them on their website when they know there is no possibility of getting them. Last edited by pooz911; 03-24-2006 at 05:47 PM. |
