I'm thinking about....

Going retro on the wheels...

I've got a 2002 Red L. I used to have a 2000 L and I think I liked the wheels that came with the 2000 better.

What do you all think?

Should I put the 2000 model style wheels on a 2002, or stick with the 2002 style becasue that is part of what makes a 2002 a 2002?

I await your opinions.

Keep the original wheels! They look better in my opinion, plus if you put on the older wheels people will think the truck is a 99-00 model.

As I'm sure your aware, 01-02 wheels are easier to clean and help prevent the brake rotor/shield from soliciting unwanted flesh dotation, or something.

dislcaimer:

I have a set of 99's for twisty track duty. They get power washed OFF the truck.

i've had this debate with myself since i got the truck, at first i liked the 01-02's but then i liked the 99-00's, and now i like 01-02's again.

i think that the 99-00's are nice, but i think they are more plain, where as the 01-02's for being like a "block" style they make the truck look alittle more **i dont know..... agressive... or symetrical, something like that.

but i really like the 01-02's in 20' way better that anything else.
