FedEx Man + Coys = Happy me - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

swierker · 07-26-2011, 02:52 PM

I've been no stranger to the FedEX/UPS guys for the past few weeks. I've been pretty busy the past few weeks with my suspension rebuild and drop. The Coy C5s were dropped off today by the FedEx guy which is one of the last big things that I needed to buy. I'm getting excited now!

The rear suspension is just about done. Removal of the front suspension is almost complete. Just need to clean/paint front end parts reassemble, bleed the brakes, etc.

For your viewing pleasure here is a picture of the Coys. 18x8 front and 18x9.5 rear.

Nice. I bought a used set from a board member and I am looking for another new set. Where did you buy from?

68 IRON · 07-26-2011, 03:00 PM

Boy, its gonna look perdy....Nice old school meets the modern age wheel. I like a Lot!!!

swierker · 07-26-2011, 03:11 PM

I ordered them directly from Coys from the number on their website. I think it was last Monday and they had them in stock. They got here today so about a week from Utah to PA is not bad.

I've changed my mind so many times on the wheels (originally wanted the TT2's and others). So far I haven't see one of our trucks with C5's that didn't look good

Can't wait to see my truck with them on

VA72C10 · 07-26-2011, 03:51 PM

Very nice. They definitely look at home on our trucks!!!

big_al_71 · 07-26-2011, 04:58 PM

I am a fan of Coys..have had mine for over two years and they are perfect...

bcutt · 07-26-2011, 05:29 PM

May I ask what the set ran you? I am thinking of going with the same wheels in 20", I am sure your truck will look great!!

Zoomin · 07-26-2011, 05:30 PM

I really, really like em. C5's and C10's go great together.

Did they send the spacers for the front center caps? You're going to need them.

CC69Rat · 07-26-2011, 07:02 PM

I think I'm going to go with this wheel on mine too, in 20" .. A lot of people have them yes, but there's a reason for that! I think they look great.

original-71 · 07-26-2011, 07:06 PM

nice choice of wheel, i like how those C5's have a deep lip looks more aggressive from the sides when you are driving.

not to but in just type in coyswheels, there sizes, choices and prices are on there. i think they a more than fair cause they will ship them to you with tires also if you want, i had got a quote before my wheels came up.

swierker · 07-26-2011, 07:45 PM

Thanks for the compliments all!

I specifically asked for them when I ordered. I was told that the they had fixed that problem with our trucks. I recall hearing someone say that on here too. I'll see when I test fit them.

wildrib · 07-26-2011, 09:30 PM

I also have the c5 wheels and had to get double spacers in the front on mine.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 07-26-2011, 09:34 PM

Cant go wrong with the c-5's
