YAY! I've always loved you truck, except for the wheels, going to look awesome with some new bling. I vote the Pro Comp wheels.

yes i ordered 15x10's but on every site on the net they were on at least a 2 month national backorder. They have plenty of 15x8's. I got the eagle alloy look alikes which turned out way better and they are a little cheaper too. They will look awesome on ur truck.

SO totally uberly jealous of those mojaves...damn you! lol. It's really too bad they don't make a 5x4.5 w/ a low backspace or 15x10's. I'll rock the mojave's when i'm fullwidth and they'll be 17's or 20's.

You're telling me. I still like them, but I like the ones I ordered a little more. This is how I'll roll until the new wheels are on. Stock spare wheel w/ full size tire. I painted the wheel tonight, there was no way i could stand to look at a faded black wheel with stickers on it for a week and a half.

Hey if I gotta wait to get them mounted, you can wait to find out what they are. I will give you a hint though if you really wanna try and guess. They are a similar style to the procomps and are from Summit. Summit really pulled through on this one. I ordered the wheels last Wednesday or Thursday and I had them on Monday after noon, with only $11 for shipping, you can't beat that with a stcik!












Man it's killing me I want those wheels on so bad!
