Ultrawheel HotSchott Type 35

Any of you running this rim/wheel on your L ?

Anyone seen this rim on a truck. What did you think?
Any of the other Ultra Wheel brand rims you've seen on an L that look terrific. Yup, I'm fishing

I don't think I would agree that the quality is cheap. Ultra Wheels quality is very good although I must admit most of their wheels are lets say "not my style". This particular wheel, the one I asked about, caught my eye. I have not seen it in person though and that is why I asked. By the way, the founder/owner of Ultra Wheels, also owns Ultra Motor Sports. Without Jim Smith, the owner, there wouldn't be a NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series. Along with some other off-road racers, Smith commissioned the first NASCAR Super Truck prototype in 1993. He and others showcased the Super Truck in the Circle Track Trade Show at the Daytona 500 the following year and four "demonstration" races were held later that season. The new truck was so well received within the racing community that NASCAR quickly picked up the truck series in 1995. Hmmmm, I've followed Ultra Race trucks for years, especially when Mike Bliss was driving the Ultra Wheels Truck..

Those style wheels in 20 inch are on back order right now. I have a set on order for my L that Mr. smith gave me. My dad and me are real close friends with Jim. He is giving me a supertruck this fall to start practicing in.
