Those sure wake up the truck kinda look like the weld stone crusher's I was looking at for my yota..

dinnut · 03-13-2004, 03:21 PM

have you tried to clean up the paint? like rubbing compounds and waxing and polishing and all that kinda stuff? sometimes it makes it like new. but sometimes you just need new paint. the new wheels definitely change the look of the truck. i guess im against the grain on the one. i liked the old wheels better. maybe ill warm up to those once i see they in a different light or something

71-longbed · 03-13-2004, 03:29 PM

whats the width of you 16 in rims ??? looks great

phestus · 03-13-2004, 04:27 PM

Those are fine wheels for that buggy..Makes an old girl look right nice...
Don't pay no attention to those heathens..That truck looks just fine the way it sits..
Rub out the paint?..That'd mess with all those years of carefully applied natural antiqeing what makes these trucks look so good..

*rage'nrat638* · 03-13-2004, 05:08 PM

16x8 wheels

thanks so much for the complements
