Question 2003 L Rims



I got this off BLK02's Image Gallary.

Just thought I'd post it to see what everybody thinks.

Personally...I don't like them.

I don't really care for them either... but maybe they will "grow" on me. IMO I think it will be hard to get a better looking wheel than the '01-'02 style!

I like the 01/02 style also. They lend themselves to being stretched to 20's very well. I like the lego look.

to each his own I guess

My favorite is still the 99-00 wheel. I think the 03 looks pretty good , albeit a bit plain. The 01-02 style has never grown on me.

Just a bit of trivia...

SVT calls the 01-02 wheels "monoblock" wheels.

(read that in the latest SVT Enthusiast mag)

Stretch them to 20s and then chrome them and they will sell lot hot cakes.

Not that it matters, everyone either likes or dislikes most every other rim they see, me included. It is a very indivdual taste.

Never have been that thrilled with my stock '02 rims. I like the chrome 99-01 rims, but that would date the truck. I think the '03's would be a better solution for me if they were chrome and perhaps 20's.

Just another humble opinion.............

Alone, they look like dorky take-offs from an S-10. In the pics on the truck, though, they look pretty good.

Overall, I like the 99-00 the best. Then the 03's. They look OK with the entire truck. Then the 01/02's, I've never cared for them.

I look at it a different way. I personally like my 01-02 rim's the best, but I think that the 99-00's are good looking, and that the 03's look pretty good. I look at it that atleast they are changing something about the truck... we will atleast see some type of variation stock for stock.

You know it's kind of funny..

When I had my 99, I thought the 99/00 wheels where the best looking
Now that I've got an 01, I think the 01/02 wheels are the best looking
When I get my 05, Iam sure I will think that they are the best looking wheels on a Lightning

Guess what Iam saying:
Beauty is in the eye of the guy/gal making the payments!
