With caps to cover so you can have a 6 lug that looks like a 5 lug c-5...betting it will be a big seller depending on how nice it looks in person....

Re: Have you heard about the new coys???
Still don't understand why they don't do better truck offsets in 18x12, 20x12 or 22x10 & 22x12
(I think it's funny the typo (18x18)

Re: Have you heard about the new coys???
i dont understand. Is having 5 lugs cooler? Kind of a weird thing to be or not be fashionable.
**** I have 8 lugs so my truck goes to 11 lol. |

At least they are nice looking 6 lug wheels.

Re: Have you heard about the new coys???
I think these were designed for the 99-06 and 07-12 six lug truck market.
I would imagine they have a small center bore to match the late model truck hubs. I'd like to see how the "cheesy" center hub/lug nut cover looks in person,...

Re: Have you heard about the new coys???
I'd say it's probably more for the new trucks for people that want a five spoke wheel without having the lugnuts being seen cutting into the spokes. I have torque thrust on my 06 silverado but think a 5 spoke would look better than the 6 spokes.

Re: Have you heard about the new coys???
The weird thing,... these new Coys have 5 "fake" lug nuts between the spokes.
Only the high dollar wheels companies (Like Schott, Budnik, Billet Specialtes) can pull off a "covered lug" centercap and make it look good. (aka no visible parting line) I wonder why Coys has no actual picture of the wheel. You know there is a prototype somewhere.

I would only be interested in the wheels if the caps aren't noticeable...I agree if it's obvious from a distance that they are fake lugs and caps that it would be "cheesy"

Re: Have you heard about the new coys???
Why not go with the original - Cragar in a 20"?
http://www.summitracing.com/parts/CRR-616C-093920/ Says 6 lug, shows five spoke. That's all I know... |
