Call Billet Specialties. They can recomend a dealer that is close. SUPER nice wheel$,... but you might have to wait for them!

Summit is a B.S. dealer. Get your part numbers and order them through Summit, that way you get free shipping and no tax either. Summit will beat anyone else's price too if you ask them.

6772king · 01-14-2005, 11:06 PM

I was at summit one time and I asked them about there whells and they said they couldnt get them,,,, I've also come to relize that you cant always believe the guys over there so maybe I'll try again,,,,

Ditto on Summit as mentioned by Tx Firefighter. I've always had great success with them.

Does Hunters have a website?????????????

*Shane* · 02-06-2005, 03:36 PM

I have a set (4) 18" x 8 1/2" Billet Specialties GTX40 (formely called the Pomona in their Premier Line).

They are brand new still in the box wrapped in plastic, never mounted, 5 x 5" bolt pattern. All billet, NO castings ... very, very nice peices.

They list for $500 each ... contact me by a PM, we can talk.

I either want to sell them as a complete set of four and purchase something different or work out something with someone buying NEW ones where I can end up with 2 fronts (18" x 8 1/2") AND 2 rears (20" x 9 1/2").

What kind of deal are you willing to make on 2. I would also like 18 and 20's. The 2o's I would like are 675 each. If its a decent price I might bite. Pm me with your answer.
Later,Darren

Never got a reply to my PM to classicchev ... sooooo ... TTT!

farside847 · 02-11-2005, 05:17 PM

I read somewhere once that this kind of wheel is really only for show
trucks. They can get wracked easy with day to day driving. Is this
true? Or are they pretty hardy? (sure do look peeerdy)

*Shane* · 02-11-2005, 05:58 PM

They are made out of aluminum, so they ARE softer than steel ... but they are fine for daily drivers as long as the driver stays off curbs and out of the pot holes.
