Those wheels are going to change the personality of your truck completely.... They might even help your outlook on life...

but still no gears or posi...basically, no way to use the engine to its fullest potential.

The wheels do look nice though.

C'Mon Eric, get with the program. From the looks of it, I'll have my posi installed before you. :p (Of course, ONCE yours is installed, you'll be able to leave me like a honda.)

My uncle (who works with cars for a living) always tells me this:
the 3 biggest things you can do to a truck to make it stand out for the least (relatively) amount of money are wheels and tires, suspension (up or down), and tinted windows.

I have thos wheels on my 99 camaro and I love the way they look but they like to bend easily I'm going to contact american racing and se if they will custom build a set of 17" x11" wheels for my 86 low riderIt should'nt be a real problem because they already make the rims and the centers all I should have to do is give them th bak spacing that I want.
