Finally some wheels!

After several months of looking at wheels and coming up empty due to lack of product availability I finally found something I like. Ballistic Hostel in chrome. 18x9 with +12 offset. Fedex delivered them today and I gotta say they look much better in person than in any pics I saw online - I'm very pleased and think these will look great on my black Lariat. Posted a couple of pics in an album (Thanks in advance to anyone who puts them in this thread.)
Now I have to wait until Monday to get them mounted and balanced. Will post more pics when I do.

Does anyone know if the black capscrews on the Hostel are powder coated or what their finish is?

I really like the looks of this wheel but the finish on those bolt heads does concern me a bit. I can't find any info on them on the net.

Very nice!
Where did you order from and what size are your nice new tires there in the background? :-)

Hostels

The tires I mounted on these rims are Nitto Terra Grapplers size 305/60/18.
Tires and rims were purchased from rimzoneonline.com
As for the black bolt covers I don't think they are powder coated. Appears to be some type of plastic that has either been glued or heat shrunk in place. So far no problems with them.
