Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

I have the Rallys that are stripped and primed but have no tires on them at this point. They wouldnt fit under my front end without rubbing alot. The rallys are for sale and I'm debating between a few sets of wheels to order.

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

I actually think after talking with my wife I have them decided on. Dennis, you had alot to do with the choice after telling me about the quality of them. Hint, hint...I want to see them on a black truck though.

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

Yes, the whole issue was too much voltage drop between the battery and the fuse box. Charged battery and found one right away. Runs awesome now! Thanks Bob!

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

Well, after looking at a bunch of my old pictures and every Eagle 225 pic I could find I decided to re-order the Coys. The 225s were on backorder and there is just something I like about the look of the polished Coys. Ordered the rears and should order the fronts in a couple weeks. Hope to be driving it again soon.

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

I really loved your truck with them. The good news is these won't need to be polished for a bit

Lol!!! They did look great on there! You should watch for one of their specials...they sometimes offer free shipping and such if you buy a whole set.

I don't know that you can make a bad wheel decision on your truck man. However, you know for sure how good the Coy's will look on there. You could always be a little different and go with the C-57's

I haven't gotten the crewcab yet. I actually found what I think is a pretty good deal on a suburban. We'll see.
