Hey guys and gals. My old white wagon wheels and 27 (!!!) year old tires have got to go. Help me choose what my next wheels will be. So far, these are the three I've narrowed it down to: (these are going to be 8-lug wheels in a 16x8 size)
1. Eagle 101: ![]() I like the look of these, though they are becoming popular. Maybe too many holes? The backspacing on these is 3 5/8" on a 16x8 wheel. I don't know if that will present a problem. 2. Center Line Wilderness Scout: ![]() Larger version: http://www.centerlinewheels.com/imag...ut_451x421.jpg These are nice. Simple design, and also they are 10 holed instead of the 8 holers like everyone else has. Though, they may look too similar to the Eagle 058's for anyone to notice. 3. American Racing Outlaw II ![]() Yeah, I know. Majorly played out, right? I think though that these are still good looking wheels, and that maybe people are beginning to stop using them. I actually don't see them on too many trucks anymore. I don't know, there's just something about them on these 67-72's that I like. For instance, my two favorite trucks, mikep's and dion's, both use these wheels. Coincidence? I don't know... Well, thanks everyone for reading. ![]() |

The Eagles ones. I like the way the holes are two-level. Kind of a recess, then the hole.

I like #3 because I don't like polishing my wheels every weekend. #1 and #2 need polishing to stay shiny, #3 is a "no maintanance" wheel - just wash it when you wash the truck.
