Wheel change? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Well... im really getting tired of looking at my retro wheels on my new truck.

I was thinking of switching to my "new old" wheels from my old ride. What do you guys think?

New Ride with retro rims.

Or with these rims... (just clean)

Clean......

So... what do you guys think? Its a chunk of change out of my pocket that I would rather do without losing, but Im not really sure if I want to keep those rims until I goto 17's or 18's

what is the cost?
you own both sets of wheels right?
What is the chunk of change for?
I think I like the second set better, any close-ups of the first set?

Its just the change of remounting and balancing.

Yes I own both sets of rims. The ones on the truck now are over 10 years old and just dont shine the way they should. My new ones shine like no tommorow. The new truck is so bright in the sun that it hurts to look at it and thats the way my rims are.

The bottom second set of rims. I like those a little better. The solid straight lines match the truck better than circles.
