They look like tork thrust 1's or 2's, maybe 17's or 18's. Can't really tell.

You Are Right

I went down to a wheel shop here in Abilene and they the biggest they come in is 17x9 (Torq Thrust II that is) Is there anyone else out there that makes rims that look like the TTII???

Here are the specs on the truck from ECC. I contacted them about the samething and this is what they e-mailed me. My truck is the first one in there customers ride section green & white Super. I'm going with the same wheel & tire combo on mine.

You can buy Torq Thrusts in sizes up to 20"......anything bigger than 17" is a "special order" item.....but they do make them. I do think 9.5 is the widest they make any of them though.

But be forewarned....They are very PROUD of the larger sizes.

no im not looking for 20s i just think 9 is to narrow i at least want 10 or 11. I just Like the size that the truck in the pic has. I think 17 is perfect just not 9 wide

eagle alloy makes a wheel that looks like the ar torque thruts

http://aewheel.com/wheels_detail.cfm?id=11

its called the series 211 and you can get them up to 17x9.5

you'll have to check your local wheel dealer for prices, but generally they are cheaper than the torque thrusts

If you want billet check with colorado customs, boyd, intro and eagle, most will do custom sizes and backspaces if you got the money. Buddy of mine just bought some boyds 20" for his 2001 chevy beatiful wheels but cost more than my whole truck.
