I need some opinions before I spend $200 for some adapters (2nd photo is cut and paste so I can see when its layed out) there 18" I plan on going with 20"s or 22"s billet wheels but I have these laying around.

I don't really like those wheels, but they are better than a lot of options. What are the new wheels that you are thinking about?

Still not sure i dont want to go the COY "look" route they look fine but there every were. My guess is something from billet specialties or boyd. I like the old school look that I have with my wheels that are on it now but there just too small for the look of my truck.

Those are nice, I would roll with those..

cl79c10 · 11-01-2009, 03:08 PM

127 looks and two whole opinions?

**Boog** · 11-01-2009, 03:29 PM

You asked for opinions...
They don't work for me.

FnLow69 · 11-01-2009, 04:08 PM

oldblue1968chevy · 11-01-2009, 04:25 PM

OARNGESI · 11-01-2009, 05:24 PM

I like the ones you got alot better

nastyc10 · 11-01-2009, 06:02 PM

not a fan of those either and a lot of people have Coys. I'd go with a 20" and 22" billet wheel.

I agree. The wheels do nothing for me, and your LWB would look better with 20/22 combo regardless of the brand.

Sinister · 11-01-2009, 07:44 PM

Some IROC's in 20" and 22" would look cool on that truck.

**lolife99** · 11-01-2009, 07:52 PM

No,... on those wheels.
Save your adapter money for the new wheels.

**mikey531** · 11-01-2009, 07:57 PM

I don't like them either.

**americanmusc1e** · 11-01-2009, 09:10 PM

nope, go with Aero wheels.

cl79c10 · 11-01-2009, 11:57 PM

Thanks all for all the opinions I really was not sure so I had to asked. Found my wheels there not billet but I think there still nice KMC SS 20"s just got to go pick them up.

VA72C10 · 11-02-2009, 12:01 AM

Those are definitely better than the others...sort of a mean version of coys
