Re: humm... 24s semi rims

It would have to be a 1ton truck because the adapters they use are 8 lug to 10 lug.

Or a 3/4 ton, which are also 8 lug.

Re: humm... 24s semi rims

Semi wheels on a pickup ain't cheap at all either.They come 22.5 or 24.5 and most mill them down to a even 22 or 24.The tires to fit them and adapters adds up.Take a look at http://www.tnwheelandtire.com/site/769454/page/427386 or http://www.americanforcewheels.com/wheels

Re: humm... 24s semi rims

Its not just the lip its the whole rim and the ones that figured out how to do it ain't telling how to do it. tnwheelandtire will mill down any semi rim you ship them last time i checked it was 125 a rim but it was years ago.

Re: humm... 24s semi rims

I paid $4500 for my 22" TowNasty set up install'd in Jan '11. with spike's .
4 wheel 22" package is $3500 , 6 wheel package is $4800.

most any machine shop can turn down the wheel's if they have a big enough laith.

"Silly" is too kind for that. Closer to awful… unless the truck is lowered considerably, wheels like that or those pictured should not be considered.
