They are billet specialties shock.
They are pretty expensive new. I'd look for a used set like I got. I would never have paid full price for them.
Also would recommend going wider like a 9.5" wide if you get them new and have a choice. They stick out a little in the front I wish the wheel stuck under the fender more. It fits perfect in the back.

sweet looking rims, but did you say they are 20x8 with 295 series tires. Did you mean 275 serires? I was told not to go wider than 275 on my 20x8.5. Just wondering.
Thanks
Mike

I got the tires and wheels as a set. I would think that a narrow tire would probably be better.
I think BFG makes a nice tire for 20's. They are more expensive.

Yeah,

Leonard stole those wheels from me. I put them in the back of his Excursion and he couldn't get out of my driveway fast enough. He didn't want to take a chance that I might just buy them for myself and put them on my own truck, He knew he stole them at that price.

I had them listed in the classifieds and was practically giving them away for a friend who sold his 01L.

They look great on your truck Leonard...

I have the Goodyear Eagle II, 275/45/20 on 20x10 B/C Smoothie II's and the front tires stick out also.

What tire are you going to replace your Goodyears with?

I'm still trying to find out what the correct wheel backspacing is so the wheels don't stick out on 20 x 10's.
