How do you like your Coy's? Reviews Please!

I have my heart set on a pair of 20" C-55s from Coys.

For those of you that already have them... How do you like them? Any problems? How is the chrome holding up from the road and if you have the grey wheels how are they holding up? Gotta ask yall or we'll never know! thanks!

Re: How do you like your Coy's? Reviews Please!

I am very impressed with them so far. I havent been able to drive it yet but i think the crome quality is great. And i got a surprise today from Coys, (LUG NUTS),,, the box must have gotten lost in shiping. So who ever i told that the price didnt include the lug nuts. I was WRONG.

I would go with the crome. Its so much easyer to keep clean and a lot less work. I asked about the polished ones and they are not clear coated.
as far as the the dish goes ,i went with a 20X10 in the rear and a 20X8.5 in the front. How low is you blazer? Call coys and give them your specs on the ride hight and they will tell you what back spacing you need. They seem to know there stuff.

I went with 5 1/4 back spacing on the front and 5 1/2 on the rear.

Re: How do you like your Coy's? Reviews Please!

Hello Guys , Just thought I would pass along a bit of information . I am a member of the Impalassforum for years , There is alot of negative feedback about Coys over there , chrome peeling , lost orders , very poor service . I have not experienced it myself , just passing along what I have seen on that forum .

I got my Coys in polished finish. I wouldnt get the chrome if it is a driver. Coys are not billet and chrome does not like to stick to cast wheels as well as billet. If you keep it in a garage and dont drive it in bad weather the chrome will hold up.

I think I remember hearing the same thing as far as poor service and taking a LONG time to get the wheels delivered. I was wanting to know if any problems with the wheels from every day drivers. I want the dark grey finish with the chrome lip. However if the chrome lip is going to chip or peel with weather and minor rock dings then I'll buy else where.

So how do they every day drivers like them?
