What kind of wax do you use. One good looking truck. Good choice.

Looks Great, I wasnt sure what the 22's would look like on a red one but they fit the wheel wells perfectly.

Are those the Eagle alloys from ebay? I was so close to buying them the other day. I absolutely LOVE them!!! You are going to make me get them now. WOW!

What tires are those and what size?

Yup. That's them. The finish is flawless. I was expecting a few imperfections; but, I got lucky. They weigh in at about 80 lbs. each though. Not too bad; but, a little heavy. The Toyo Proxes 285/35s give a good ride, too. Better than I expected by far.

Did you order them off of ebay? The ones I saw for sale didnt give any backspacing or any specs, just that they were 22x9.5

Does anyone know if these will fit the Lightnings with 12mm studs, or will there be any fitment problems with new wheels?

Thanks

Jon

Not off of ebay. I bought from here...

They seem to fit the 12mm studs. Different lugs should be all it takes.


It took a while to get them though. The local Discount Tire could have gotten them quicker for about the same cost.

What's funny is, I waxed her last back in the fall. Over 6 months ago. I hit the car wash every week. (No touch.) It's about time for another wax session; but, then it'll be another six months. I drive her everywhere. Klasse is the best, if you don't want to spend all of your free time cleaning your vehicles. I'll probably never use anything else.

I knew it! How's the ride? Any problems with braking/acceleration? I was thinking of getting these same rims a while back with a painted black center and chromed lips. I remember some place had them for just under a grand for a set of 4...I'll look for the site if anyone is interested
