    nice i was waiting for these pics i think they look good man :thumbsup:

    i'm a black man myself everything is black on my truck so that would have been my preference but, the gray looks really nice with the red i have to admit.

    these wheels really are just classic i love the design

    Haha thanks guys! I'm just running 5100s set to 2.5" with the wheelers 3 leaf progressive AAL and kept the overload in. I'm happy with how it drives, there is some rubbing at full lock,, I'll have to trim a bit. Also, I think they can be balanced a little better... I thought I read a tsb for these wheels saying to use hammer on weights on the inside and sticky weights closest to the outside, AND balance them lug centrically, but I can't find anything anywhere now...

    I like them Mike. Classic look for sure ... you made a great decision ... some asked about 5 lug ... I picked up similar look (gun metal) from American Racing ... thought some would be interested ... (don't intend on jacking your thread):
