No joke about this lug pattern. I spent hours trying to match up something I like. Fortunately I like old style and not flashy wheels. Also got real lucky in the price was only $138 per wheel. Went with the Razors. For those that like a bit more razzle I recommend the Blitz. BTW, For these wheels the polished steel look better than the chrome, but that is only my point of view.

Josiah, I also feel your fustration you find a wheel you like and not your lug pattern, even on the internet you look up wheels by model and what shows up 3-4 FREAKEN CHOICES , i personally like the FX4 wheels that i have but i wish they came in a bigger size like 20-22's. Also wheels look different than when you put them on your ride they may look sweet but when you see them on your truck, makes ya change your mind

The selection is getting better but your right about it still being a little odd. I deal with this shop thta gets some HELLA good deals on rims. Maybe they fall off the truck or what ever. Well the 6-135 patterns have not come up in the good deal department yet. On my last truck 00'Rodeo it had Hubcentric wheels that were hard to buy for too.

I REALLY like those Harley rims. Do any of you think they would look good on my F150 in 20's.

What is that?

REDWINGNUT-

What is the second wheel you posted? Josiah may not like it, but I do. I don't think I'll be buying rims any time soon, but it'll be nice to have an archive of ones I like for when the time comes.

Unfortunately, expensive truck mods are low priority around my house. We have a baby on the way (our first). I'm going to try to keep myself happy with buying stuff for $100 or less for a while.

Thanks,
CJ

Blitz's don't come in our lug pattern, my point exactly.

Actually they do. If you go to Discount Tire website and search by size. Select 6-135 bolt pattern. Select either 17 or 18" wheel size. They come in both. Maybe these links will work:

I looked extensively at wheels, and numerous sites allow you to search by vehicle. There are many more that actually fit our rigs (Weld, American Racing, Centerline are osme). And of course Boyd Coddington, Boze and others are made to order. Keep looking. There many wheels available, but is is a newer pattern so sometimes it takes longer to find.
