A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

Re: Alcoa aluminum wheels

I would say that if the tires are shot, I wouldn't go over $100 per wheel. I like those style wheels.

Re: Alcoa aluminum wheels

$100 a wheel would be a great deal IMO. They are available new for about $300 apiece. I bought a set of 4 for $500 with McGard nuts and centers which I thought was a deal, but lugs turned out to be 14mm and not the 9/16 I needed which added $125 to the deal. In the Alcoa paperwork it says that the GM wheels (if they are the same as mine) are to be run with a steel inside wheel on the rear. They need special flanged lug nuts, so make sure that you get the lugs and they are 9/16. Southwest Wheel has the motor home sets for $1500. Looks like $1000 for my set of 4.
