nope, but im intersted too, im sitting on the fence you could say, i was thinking green but today my dadsuggested black, since the firewall and everythign under the hood allready is black, if i do im thinking about painting my ralleys black or red to match the bowtie on the grill and the bowties on the side, sorta goin for that tough rat rod look

>X< · 01-06-2003, 04:03 PM

how about this one

sniper2321 · 01-06-2003, 07:12 PM

or

>X< · 01-06-2003, 07:19 PM

thanks for the pics guys. sweet trucks. i think the reason that nobody has a pic is that maybe i'm the first person to ever put black steel rims on a black step! haha, woo hoo! if i get a good check this week i'm gonna order some, i think they;re only like 40 bucks

Tynee · 01-06-2003, 08:26 PM

Yeah, those A.R. steel wheels are el cheapo proce wise. I'll probably put the white ones on when I get to that stage. The nice thing about them is that they are powder coated not painted. At least that applies to the ones I was looking at. Make sure you get white letter tires. That'll look SWEET.

MandarinSixSeven · 01-06-2003, 08:29 PM

I love those black AR rims...the ones with the blue and red thin pinstripes?
Those with the Goodyear Eagle Nascar yellow letter tires look so sweet, like old school nascar style

>X< · 01-06-2003, 09:28 PM

they're indestructble too, Petersons 4wheel and off road did a test were they ran a fullsize chevy on jus rims on front, no tires. the mickey tompsons were crap, and the otherswere crap, but they said it looked like a tire could still be mounted on the steelies

>X< · 01-06-2003, 09:30 PM

aren't the white ones cheaper? thats great, i'll jsut take to work and paint them with some gloss black polyeurathane.

neonlarry · 01-06-2003, 10:19 PM

The only thig about getting the white ones, is that the whole in them are a different shape. Not that that is bad, but they won't look the same as the AR 767s that come black already.

>X< · 01-06-2003, 10:52 PM

i like the bigger hole/less spokes of the white ones though

MandarinSixSeven · 01-07-2003, 01:54 AM

the black ones have 'D' shaped holes, while the white ones are triangular and more wagon wheel like

neonlarry · 01-07-2003, 02:11 AM

If you like the shape of the whole in the white ones, then go for it. They are even about $10 cheaper a piece too

I was just saying that they are a little bit different other than the color.

>X< · 01-07-2003, 05:25 PM

yeah i know man. i'm gonna order them tonight, thanks for the pics guys

frisky68 · 01-07-2003, 06:02 PM

I am need of 1 - 15-8 rally like the 1st truck on this post has...anybody have 1 to sell ??

>X< · 01-07-2003, 11:49 PM

i'm just thinking about how if i paint them white the tire guy si prob gonna scratch through it when putting the tire on, the use some pretty abusive tools, maybe paint it after tire is mounted on it?

JoetheMobster · 01-08-2003, 12:11 AM
