New wheels
Well, they aren't really new. I bought them used and got a pretty good deal. They are billet specialties shock wheels 20x8. The traction is almost nonexistant with these tires(GoodYear HP 295/40/20) With the nitto drag radials it was difficult to spin the tires. I go sideways anytime I step on the gas now at lower speeds. Good news is that replacement tires are on;y $169 on tire rack.

That looks damn good. No offense to the bling guys, but these trucks are meant to have billet wheels. I think a set of 20-22" billets beat a set of chrome wheels hands down any day. They just make the trucks look all that much meaner. Wise purchase!!!

easter,
Be very careful with those tires they are the same one's I wiped out on last year and wrecked my hooptie. On dry pavement those Good Year's were pure s**t and in the wet, traction was non-existant.
Nice wheels by the way
