need to find some cheap drag wheels...

i ordered a pair of 26x11.5x16 M/T ET Streets.

i need to get a pair or CHEAP wheels to mount these to. i will be buying a set of nice drag wheels in the future. i spent a couple thousand on my truck in the last week and dont have too much left for wheels right now.

what is the best size wheel for me and does anyone know where i can get a cheap set for now?

also, do i have 12mm or 14mm lug studs? my truck was born on august 14 of 2000.

thanx for all the help...chris

You could get a set of spare wheels.......they are 16x7 I think. Those would work fine for those tires. I ran AR Baja's that are also pretty budget.

Chris, I'm looking for the same thing. I found an ad in the back of Truckin' for Performance Plus. They show an Alcoa syle L171 in a 16x10 for $99. They are in California. I just called and talked to Glenn. They can do our 5x135 no problem. Usually takes a couple days to get. He said shipping for close states like us would be about $15. His number is 562-981-2689. I'm probably going to order a set if my Discount Tire guy can't go cheaper.

I just bought a pair used from Yoda (remember him?)

They look brand new, and they came with rims that also look brand new. If anyone does business with him, have no worries.

I'll post pictures tonight or tomorrow. Best $350 + $85 in freight I ever spent. with Yoda
