They are the cheaper more expensive version of the soft 8's. Go with cragars if you want those wheels.

yeah, i'd prefer the cragars' look, but these aren't steel = no loss of mpg

my truck is my beater vehicle since my car gets such low MPG and i'd prefer to keep my truck as efficient as possible (higher MPG)
