Black steels

Anyone here know if black steels are available for our bolt-pattern yet? I would like to replace my factory 18" w/ black steels and use the stock tires until they need replaced. I would prefer a 18x9" tire.

If they're not available I'll have to go with the AE's I just saw on Grunt's rig. Hopefully I'll be able to keep the silver/black going though....

I believe the wheel for the spare is a black steel, full time wheel (not for temporary use). The wheel on my truck is. You could order a set of those. Most tire shops can also get black steel wheels to match any lug pattern.

Thayer,

Thanks for the compliment. So are you out now or just PCS. Those pics are taken at Hatchee/Lin if you're familiar.

Anyways, you've got a nice truck too. Hell, they're all nice. (only referring to Fords)

Take care

I lived at 17B Hatchee when I first got there. Then we moved down to Nakina which I believe you're close to. I PCSd to England and we just got to Luke a few months ago.
