    How much did you pay and how much was shipping, how many days did it take to arrive, ease of balancing, etc.?

    That is true, but then again I have a variety of tastes. :annoyed: That's why I've come here. When I like a wheel it's usually not because it fits in a certain style I have a taste for, but I just like how it looks. I hope that kind of makes sense.

    I've been to the site and have really looked at wheels and imagined them on the truck, and I do think the Ray 10's would be a great best of both worlds wheel. So I may look into that one. But I also really like the Stealth 6's split spoke design.

    Head unit. That's it.

    When I joined this site, I went with the parts and pieces that I liked, and they didn't really work well together, (well shit, they probably still don't...lol)


    Now, I've moved on to a direction I wish I would have had when I started modding, which would have saved me time and money. I'm picking a theme and going that way.

    I should probably keep that in mind. If I had to pick a theme, I'd guess I'd be going for a sleek rockcrawler. Sleek bumpers, rock sliders, and the minimalist wheels. Ray 10's would fit the bill for modern, but minimalist design.

    Thanks for all of y'all's help. :D I'll be attempting to get a set of the Ray 10's when they're back in stock. Any opinions on colors? I'm kind of partial to bronze wheels, but may stick to either gunmetal or jet black. Who knew a simple discussion would be so helpful! :thumbsup:

    Black is overdone.

    Bronze looks killer on black, and so does the graphite gray/gunmetal .

    I'll find pictures of those. I think their Brushed Copper is like a gold/bronze. There's this guy on Instagram that has a great truck with goldish rims.

    Buy two of each, and install each color on different sides? lol

    :rolleyes: Brushed Copper up front, gunmetal in back? :D Nah, I'm thinking the Brushed Copper if they come back in stock. Just from reading the thread from their most recent restock, it sounds like they go very quickly.

    I think you can go ahead and order them, and they will ship when they make em. Not sure though. @ChadsPride can tell you more than I can, as he just ordered a set from SCS.

    Good luck on getting the Ray 10's. The last batch sold out in like 5 minutes.

    Yeah, saw that in the thread. A little upsetting when you find out after they're all gone.

    I may sign up for that Apple Pay thing when I go to purchase my set. Read on the forum just now that's what a guy did and he was able to purchase using just his fingerprint. Sped it up and secured him a set.

    I would just go to the SCS website and send an Email

    Or you could click on his name and click 'start conversation'
