This is the same style, brand, mine does not have the flutes in the spokes. I liked them without the flutes.

Yeah, C'mon give up the specs. What drop and wheel size, and backspacing. Appears you have nittos in 255/50-17's and 275/50-17.

Thanks for the compliments, sorry for the delay on the goods. Here goes...
4/5 drop( spindles/ coils Early Classic), the usual on the rims 17x8 &17x9.5 w/ 4.5 on the front and 5.0 on the back ( billet specialties ) Good guess on the tires Cheyenne Super! Under the hood just a .30 over 350 w/ double humps, edlbrock performer RPM intake/ 1405 carb, flat tops, 2bolt same ol/same ol. Modified turbo 400 tranny. Inside, fac. buckets, stock dash, nothing fancy. By the way the paint isn't in very good shape. I just have a low quality digicam! Its not terrible but not great either. Trust me the pic makes it look a lot better than it does in person. Its a 50 foot paint job! LOL...

I got an email from them that said they're going to be moving to a new server, so it'll probably be down for a while.

hey Chevyc10!, First of all the truck looks really good. Second, do your front wheels/tires have any clearance problems with your fenders? Thanks

No clearance problems what so ever. The fronts are 17x8 with 4.5" backspacing. When you go wider than 8/9ish is when you get into trouble...
