Wheels

Anyone know a good place\website to get after market wheels? I'm wanting 20's for my 85. Anyone got suggestions as far as a style of rim or anything, that would be nice too.

Re: Wheels

I spent a considerable amout of time looking around for deals a prices both locally and throughout the internet. The best place I could find was 4wheelonline.com They are a wholesaler so you tend to get better prices and most of the time you can find a deal for free shipping. As far as suggestions/styling goes... it completely depends on whether you wanna go up down or stay stock heighth in my mind... but here is what i went with. 20x10 with 4.5" back spacing wrapped in 36x13.5 irok radials. Hope this helps

What brand wheels are you running on your truck? Not usually a fan of anything taller a 16.5" wheel on these trucks, but that looks pretty killer.

Re: Wheels

Sorry this is such a late reply. The wheels I am running in the above picture are American Racing Wheel - Justice... I believe it's part of their ATX line. They were very well priced. I went with the larger diameter rim strictly to allow for a higher load rating.
While I do love the overall look of how the wheel tire combo came out... I typically prefer about a 17 inch rim. Best size to allow for a wide range of tires at more reasonable prices.

Hope that helps!
