Hey Gatsby -- great truck!

Those wheels are on the shopping list for one of my 6 lug rides (the magnesium finish, not polished)

What backspacing and width are those?

love the stock morrors on it, too

J Gatsby · 10-11-2007, 02:42 PM

streetstar, they are 8.5" wide with a5.5" backspace. we needed 1/2" spacers in the rear to clear the middle of the axle. The headlights are from Autoloc, that website part of the hoffman group.

J Gatsby · 10-11-2007, 02:45 PM

it is only a 194 bulb, however. not the brightest, but better than nothing. forgot to tell you that
