Whatcha think?

Thinking of ordering these this Friday...

They'll be on my GMC, probably with a 295/40 in the back and a 245/40 up front. I know these aren't the wheels I really want, but they will help to solve some issues I'm having with the 18s I have on now and the price isn't a bank buster. First, the 18s are the wrong lug pattern, so they have adapters which I'd rather not use. The fronts are too close to the fenders, so the fender lips catch the tires when the truck is completely aired out, these wheels should sit far enough in from the fender to cure that problem. In the rear, I need to gain an inch or so in ride height to keep from dragging on my driveway, I think 20s will help take care of that. Also, I've got 275/35/18 in back, so the 295/40s will be a bit taller sidewall and a little more ride height.

Nice looking wheels and a good price too. If they will fit right and solve your problems then go for it.:thumbsup:

From what I've read on the GM truck forums, these should fit perfectly. I'd really love to have some bonspeeds or Rushforths:unibrow: , but right now I just need to get the truck on the road and these seem to be the fix for now.

If they are only a temporary set just look for a set of steel wheels and save the money for the ones you want later. The resale on used wheels is not too good so you can't really count on a return on them to go towards the new set.
I guess I am asking why buy twice? Or search ebay, craigslist and local tire/wheel shops for take offs or a used aftermarket set for a fraction of the cost of these.

just my .02. I hate to see money wasted on any project. Save a bit and get the Rushforths from Justin at Driverz inc (killer service and prices). You will be much happier in the long run.:cheers:

Well I guess I'll call it a sign, but these wheels were no longer being offered when I went to order them Friday. So it looks like I'll just make my 18's work for now, maybe do some redneck engineering (read: 2"x12"x8') on my driveway to help the truck "step" up from street level... LOL!!!
