Not a huge fan of them, but you could definitely do a lot worse!

Re: Anyone think these would look good?
Looks too...I dunno...ricer-ish for me. Not to say that it won't look fine on your truck--that is the beauty of this era, put practically any wheel under them and it'll look cool.

Re: Anyone think these would look good?
they look like the wheels on my HHR i dont think good on a classic tho
add to that they're for front wheel drive vehicles and the bolt pattern is 5X4.5 i'd tend to think of lots o problems and waste of money

Re: Anyone think these would look good?
I'm a pretty conservative, nothing but TT2's kind of guy but I think those may look really good. Buy'em and try'em is my motto.

Re: Anyone think these would look good?
yea, I too am one of those 40 somethins... They are sharp looking wheels, and personally I prefer the original recipe on our vintage trucks.
But if the said truck has been all customized out, then they may look good on that kind of build?

Re: Anyone think these would look good?
I am 35, and I say no.
Too skinny, too modern....a set of Vette Rally wheels would do much better if you want to go inexpensive

Re: Anyone think these would look good?
I think they would look OK, on a customized truck, and I'm 49. I'd have to chuck em up in the vice and drill 3 more lug nut wholes for them to fit my truck though. Lol, I like the age thing going here.

Re: Anyone think these would look good?
They're not awful.Just not for me.Make sure they'll fit.These trucks (and anything I'd drive) look best with some dish to their wheels and I like more beef on a truck.now I'm gettin hungry.

Re: Anyone think these would look good?
I'm 50,
If you like them and you want them, then buy them! Not to sound like a downer. But, Do you ask us about your hair or any other personal taste you have. No, so I say it's your truck make it anyway you want. Just be happy with it yourself. You are the one who parks it in the garage every night.
