Ford vs GMC

So My dad owns a 2005 GMC Sierra extended cab with a 5.3L V-8 with a CAI, E-Fans, aftermarket Comp Cams, Springs, lifters, and rockers, tuned with a FAST tune, Lowered/leveled, Borla Exhaust, and dynatech headers.

I now own My 1999 Ford F-150 XLT, with a 5.4L V-8 with a CAI, E-Fans, aftermarket Comp Cams, Springs, lifters, and followers Lifted on 35's, True dual Cherry Bombs

Both with a full tank of gas

So the bet was that loser buys the winner new wheels, Price limit was 150.00 per wheel, and they have to fit the tires we already have

My dad knows the owner of our local drag strip, so we got to use a real drag strip,

And tonight my Heavy a$$ truck kicked my dads a$$ in the 1/4mile

HAHAHAHAHAHA

So BOOMER is getting new Rims!!!

So the only wheels i like under 150.00 are Ultra Thunder wheels.




What do You guys think?

Those wheels are classic and always look good! I seen some wheels today that looked awesome they were MKW M83's. Check them out too they were in your price range, plus you'd probably be the only one with them.

Yeah, Rimzone has just about the best prices. They'll usually go even lower if you email a rep directly.

If that's not you absolute favorite wheel, take his $150 and foot the difference to get what you really want. Don't settle.

You can just send a message to the direct link on their page. Tell them what wheels you are looking at and the specs and ask whats the best they can do for you price wise. Heck, even shoot them a much lower price than what they advertise and they will probably give it to you. I've seen guys do it to them before and they will either accept or give you a counter offer.
