Just installed H2 wheels(pics)
Well after going around on this for a while I decided to stop being cheap and just get a set of new wheels, checked Ebay for a while till I found this set for $400 with only 7200 miles on em, drove to Long Island to pick em up and saved a ton on shipping, this winter I will powder coat em black and go with a set of mud terrains, I should be installing my leveling kit this weekend, but as of right now no rubbing except at full lock, I kinda miss my black rims though.

I think they look good. I would look at some center caps and maybe have them powdercoated black and see what that looks like. Other than that I think it sets the truck off.

Wheels look good.... have you called about a quote for the powdercoating, when I first got mine that's what I wanted to do and was quoted a price of around $1200, the guy told me it would be cheaper/easier to just buy black wheels instead.
So, if you get something reasonable maybe I'll take a drive down and we can get a discount for multiple wheels......
keep us posted.

Thanks guys, I purchased them already drilled out, they came off a 3rd gen, for $400 I couldnt pass em up, I got a price of about $40-50 a rim for coating, as far as centers im gonna try the 2nd and 3rd gen caps to see what I like best, even though it looks good with no centers

I'd like to upgrade to 17s, but you know how it goes.
Are these wheels 17x8?

I've been assuming the ebay H-2's are knock offs at those prices.... and have some concern about sufficient flex?
May be wrong - as I said, I'm just assuming; no research done, cause decided not to make the change!
