Here is a link to a c-20 on ebay. I was wondering if anyone knows who makes these wheels. It's a dealer selling it I believe.

they look like american racing black steel rims with chrome trim rings to me?

Those are just some cheap chrome modular wheels with the centers blacked out. Then it looks like they put a weld wheel center cap over the lug nuts or something.

Cheap steel with a nice cap for sure.

Good looking rig though otherwise.

They look like the American Racing Nugget series wheels. They had chrome,gold and black nuggets. Pep Boys use to sell them for around $35 each...

Is that a factory rear sway bar?

Yep you got it...

So you think it might be a AR wheel with a beauty ring and center cap?

It is a Chrome "Modular" wheel as they were called. The chrome you see is not a beauty ring, it's the rim itself. The center of the rim probably came black from the manufacturer. It appears to be satin black, so there is a possibility they have been painted.

The center cap appears to be one that was offered by Weld Racing wheels. It was a universal cap that was designed to clear the floater hub on a 3/4 ton axle.
