I cant even find an affordable set since that vf truck place sold out. Everyone keeps saying check ebay and all but they all go for like 700$+300-500shipping. That dosent sound like a deal to me. And the hummer places here want like 1600$ for a "take off" set. Where did you pick up your set if you dont mind me asking?

Lund Cadillac in Phoenix $800.00 per set if they still have any. I was going to buy a set but I ran into an even sweeter deal, $100.00 each just for tires at Legends Cadillac, and my boss gave me his old H2 wheels.

I saw a set of chrome ones on a new H2 that were factory, but slightly different from the ones I have... they had little nubs in between each spar... kind of looked like that American Racing Atlas... as seen here http://www.wheelspecs.com/specs/wheelmodels/720 Not sure of other new designs, but this is the only set I've seen that were different from the standard H2's.
FWIW, mine were $500 for a set of 4 from Gorilla Companies down in PHX. Interesting side note: They might even be off of Emmit Smith's personal H2... it was there getting "pimped" when I picked up the wheels.

I saw an ad with the new H2 pick-up version coming out this year and it had slightly different wheels. I still don't think I can get them to fit my dually....maybe with some spacers...

I can't find any H2 wheels that are affordable (mucho dollars on shipping) is there any after-market wheels that will fit and not stick out too much? I know the backspacing on our wheels isn't real popular among the wheel manufacturers.

If I buy the H2 wheels, I know the center hole has to be modified, could someone tell me if I can get a drill hole saw and do this myself...and if possible what is the exact size I need? Appreciate your help I might pick up a set of these wheels.

HDpower, Hoot wrote excellent directions in a thread on this topic that explains exactly how to do this mod, I used the info and mine came out great. I did use a manual mill and had the center caps cut on a lathe. Excellent wheels and tires for the price, $560 at the local hummer dealer with brand new bfg's. Below is the link to the thread.

nebuniRAM, Thanks for the link to the great write up by Hoot, however I do not have access to the type of equipment shown nor do I know of anyone in the area that can do this. I did read somewhere that someone used a HD drill with a 4.75'' hole saw and drilled them out like that...would this work ok or am I looking for problems later? Appreciate the help.
