Re: What wheel looks better?

I'm confused. Why do you have two that are 6 lug and one that is 5 lug. You say you don't want to convert to 5 lug but you show a wheel that is 5 lug only.

Door #3 for me Montie.

Re: What wheel looks better?

Thats how we roll in Pittsburgh... Just kidding!
The truck is a 6 lug, the photoshop wheels are pics of 5 lug wheels.
Bonspeed as most two piece wheel mfg can build the wheel 5,6,or 8 lug when they machine them.

Yeah so when will you be getting your 5 lug conversion?

Here's one with a little extra salt.

True, but I don't think the Superstar will look right as a 6 lug. It's an awesome wheel especially when it powder coated with a gray center.

Before you get excited about the Salt Flats, note that they only come in 17's....

Re: What wheel looks better?

I think you are correct N2, just wouldn't look right with 6. I think that is why Zumo asked if I'm ready to convert to 5 lug... I,m not in a big hurry right now and I like looking at all these options. Not ruling out anything at this point.

Concerning the FYI: I saw that post, Thank you!
I called Bonspeed last week and got a price (#2 pic) of 2,700. shipped to my door. That was for 20x8.5 & 20x10 6lug whatever BS I wanted.
