Dulcaln,

I've never been a Fan of these types of wheels.
They look (to me) like a 6 Lug Wheel on a 5 lug Hub. They also look to be Aluminum that needs to be Polished (another thing I hate to do).
Now on the other hand these will look better than what you have on there.

So I'm just of no use at all..........

Re: will these wheels look good

Those are Weld Wheels, which are true forged wheels and some of the lightest ones out there. You won't buy any better wheels that's for sure.

I'd pick them up personally. If I didn't care for the look after all, they will be an easy sell. There's guys around looking to buy them as long as they're 5 on 5 pattern.

Re: will these wheels look good

Looks good in the picture. Will look good on your truck,IMO. They are the highest quality wheel. Made for function with good looks.

Re: will these wheels look good

Re: will these wheels look good

Just to add to the variety, I say keep the stockers and get some caps for them. The big mirrors aren't compatible with the drag truck look.

Sharp looking truck you have too.

Not a fan of raised, white-letter tires, but I like the wheels.

I've always liked these wheels on the C10, and it'll be a good excuse to get a 4/6 drop setup

$300.00 for the set, You can't beat that price. The tires are worth that much.

Re: will these wheels look good

Not wanting to confuse things but,,, usually the weld wheels are 5 on 4 3/4 and 5 on 4 1/2. The 5 on 5 and 5 on 4 1/2 combo sounds odd to me. You may want to double check.
