I've seen either those wheels, or wheels similar to those, and they looked awesome. If you don't mind me asking, how much did they set you back? Do you have a link?

Those are some SWEET wheels, I have seem them on some Cheby's and they look really good.

60's have a thin look to them for my 4X4 taste...

Sorry 'bout the cheby thing

They are about $300 to $350 per wheel. Of course they can be had for less, but you have to shop around. There are several wheels that look similar to these, but I am partial to these. I got them from thewheelconnection.com you can also find them at www.discountedwheelwarehouse.com

Nitto 325-60-18's, I was going to get the 65's but I don't think they would fit w/out a leveling kit plus the 60's shouldn't hurt my mileage too bad.

I had them on a DM*X and they looked awesome. I personally think the Dodges look much better so you should be happy.

I will tell you to keep them clean or the chrome will tarnish. I was used to polished wheels and you can pretty much always bring them back to life, but the chrome wheels can be stained.

Not yet, I'm still waiting on UPS to bring them. They are supposed to be here late this week, but I just called to get a tracking number, and surprise!! they don't even have the wheels yet that they swore were in stock when I ordered. What happend to the days when you could order something and get it w/ out a problem. TST just informed me that my PMCR that was supposed to be here last week MAY get here late next week at the earliest.
