Talking Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

Well either way I'm in no hurry, my truck is not running yet. But at least it will look good sitting in the garage with the new shoes (When they arrive)

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

Sorry if I missed this but can you get any bolt pattern on the group buy? I need 5 on 4.75.

Strictly speaking, the group buy was intended to be limited to what is listed in the first post. Having said that, send a PM to Sublvr72 and see what he can do for you.

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

Well, I just ordered a 1" bolt on spacer for the rear set of 20x10's, I'll let you know how they work out and post pics once they are on. They will hopefully be here Friday.

Man, I'll tell you though, these wheels look really nice on our trucks. I just have the fronts on but they change the whole truck.

And I am stock height in the front, and 2" drop in the rear and I kind of like the way it sits/looks now, I'll have to think if I want to drop it, although I am sure all of you will say DROP IT!!

Wild,

It was like $69 plus shipping and Tax cause he is in CA, it totaled around $90 for a set of two. They are the billet bolt on type.

So it will set me at 20x10 with 5.25" backspacing, I think it will be just right, or close.

Got em at www.ezaccessory.com

You can get 1" spacers (that look identical to what you got) for $60 shipped on eBay. Here's one example: http://tinyurl.com/ylxtdgr. Not rubbing it in -- just trying to save someone else some money.

Brent,

Yeah, I talked to them but they were going to ship them from an east coast warehouse and I am in Cali, I didn't want to wait a week to put my rears on so I opted to get them from this guy cause he is in Ca, I should have them by Friday...I hope.

I am pretty sure the ones on ebay are the same as the ones I ordered so I would go for them.

Good call Brent.

Edit: Whoops, I talked to the seller CJBargains not that guy in the link, I thought they were the same.

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

Man I am so tempted. The wife just rolled her eyes since she knows I have a full set of 15x8 rally's and a staggered set of slot mags 15x7 & 15x8. I think I am becoming a wheel whore.

Less than 24 hours to decide... clock is ticking....

Re: Boss 338 Wheels **GROUP BUY**

I was hoping that someone would say that they still don't fit so I could save my money, but......theses are made in the u.s.a. right? The patrioctic thing to do would be to buy a set to support are fellow americans. Right? I mean, what else would be a better thing to do in todays economy, but to boost the economy a little more. Right? Come on guys talk me into it!

That's why you (1) keep your parts inventory to yourself and (2) ask forgiveness rather than permission.

I'm seeing chrome available for order on the website. Are they actually available or is this a pre-purchase until they become available?

Be sure you have a state selected when calculating your shipping. If you don't, only the UPS options will show as pictured below.
