i am having trouble deciding between these 2 wheels. they are both 20 x 8.5.

first is the centerline stingray
second is the intro twisted vista

what do you think?

heres the truck they are going on:

mcmlxix · 10-01-2004, 01:38 AM

I like the ones next to the truck.. but they need more of a depth to the rim.... maybe the offset is wrong for that wheel ...

obsesive23 · 10-01-2004, 01:41 AM

Man go twisted vista my neighbors go them on a 55 nomad and they are sweet! I'm trying to get him to let me take pics but he's a nervous fellow.

67chev · 10-01-2004, 02:19 AM

Twisted Vista's!!! Those are awesome.

71Longbed · 10-01-2004, 03:31 AM

their both good either way you cant go wrong

Blue Beard · 10-01-2004, 04:30 AM

With that paint job go twisted, will stand out.

Guff · 10-01-2004, 08:37 AM

another vote for the intro's

**N2TRUX** · 10-01-2004, 08:43 AM

You need to see the Centerlines in person. It wouldn't be a choice then. They look very boring.

You need a highly polished wheel to make that color scream. Go with the Intro's....

Joe67 · 10-01-2004, 08:52 AM

Twisteds

Keep the Dunlops too

Putter · 10-01-2004, 09:10 AM

TWISTED. No doubt. Then maybe a little lower on the stance. (I like the twisteds because they almost have a distorted torque thrust feel to them). I like that truck color, too! Good choice.

chevy_fatman · 10-01-2004, 09:14 AM

This is not fair!! the Centerlines never had a chance lol

Twisted 100%

Zumo · 10-01-2004, 09:23 AM

The TWISTED VISTAs .........

Peregrine · 10-01-2004, 09:28 AM

I personally like the Crager, but the other is cool to. Just don't put 23 inch rims on that thing, I beg of you.

stickshift_or_walk · 10-01-2004, 09:46 AM

Another vote for the Centerlines.

Are the Intros directional? I never have liked wheels that looked one way on the driver's side, but different on the pass. side. But if they're actually directional, you're limited on rotation patterns. PITA.

toddtheodd · 10-01-2004, 10:28 AM

I never rotate anyway myself. I just buy my tires two at a time. every 10,000 miles buy 2 new front tires and move the fronts to the rear. (though sometimes the rears don't last that long

and I have to get new fronts sooner.)

Smokin72on20s · 10-01-2004, 03:49 PM

i am actually going to raise the truck up a bit, as it sits now its like a 5-8 drop, and i dont think i will be able to tuck 20's with a semi thick tire without rubbing issues.

my new 72 · 10-01-2004, 04:07 PM

I thought you were selling the truck and looking for a new ride??

longnlow72 · 10-01-2004, 06:29 PM

i like the 2nd ones

FRENCHBLUE72 · 10-01-2004, 08:39 PM

I would go with the intro's....

Smokin72on20s · 10-02-2004, 01:15 AM

what do you think of these? MB motoring 18"s chrome 8.5" wide

Brainchild · 10-02-2004, 01:21 AM

I like the 2nd ones,looks like it's moving sitting still,the ones right above me would be a nice move IMO

K5KRAZIE · 10-02-2004, 03:56 AM

I like the deep lip look of the Intros also like the swept design. I have always liked the 5 spoke wheels as well...
I will be getting this style when the project arises

I agree. Every other post I see of your is in a new direction. What are you doing?

Zumo · 10-02-2004, 09:09 AM

I am not a fan of the rivets at the end of the spoke in the last ones.

The wheel looks kinda busy to. If you have ever had a wheel with rivets you can apprecaite what Zumo is saying. Rivets suck!!!
