Careful with some of the newer wheels. The center hole are too small and will not slide over 1 ton hubs. This is especially true if the wheels came off a 2wd.

Actually the wheels that you have are pretty nice! But I like the steelie look too!

I have a question for you guys though, is there any aftermarket steel OEM wheels that are wider than stock? I'd like to go with a wider wheel and 33's with the stock hub cap.

Thanks for the pics. Exactly what I wanted to see.

I guess it all depends on which wheels I find first on craigslist. I still think these HD wheels would look pretty damn good with some 255/85R16 KM2's or some skinny 35's. I've found a few sets on CL already, but need to sell a car before I can start spending. It sucks because over the years I've seen some sets go for next to nothing... but never had a use for them until now.

Hope someone doesn't mind I used this pic:
