Well after months of waiting I finally got my wheels, 20" Detroit steel wheels.
I'm very happy with them so far . I have put about 500 miles on them and they atract some attention . I know everyone likes pics so ...
-Old rim next to new rim :

5/7 static drop with inner fenders , rear c-notch . NO rubbing.

Sharp!

Mmorgan32 · 08-31-2015, 11:04 PM

So sick man. I want a set so bad but they are pricey!

NASTY-LSX · 08-31-2015, 11:18 PM

Damn. it looks Awesome!

Malamute · 08-31-2015, 11:36 PM

Those look very nice. I'm considering them in 18" as I'm not sure I want 20's with a 4.5/6 drop. Exactly how many months was the wait?

**Ironangel** · 09-01-2015, 12:02 AM

Sweet!!!

Honestly it was over three months.

ekgguy · 09-01-2015, 09:08 AM

Those look great on that truck...!

**Hart_Rod** · 09-01-2015, 09:52 AM

Looks great!

WarMonger · 09-01-2015, 09:56 AM

Looks amazing. What size tire did you go with?

Malamute · 09-01-2015, 10:06 AM

They really do look great on that truck but damn that's a long wait for wheels.

slowcpe · 09-01-2015, 11:28 AM

Looks great!

I keep debating on these wheels for my truck but having a hard time finding specs on them considering their website is down. Curious what one would like with '67 caps and if I could get them in 12" wide for the rear.

BossHogg69 · 09-01-2015, 07:31 PM

I'm diggin' that!!! Bad a$$!!!!!!!!

clemsonteg · 09-01-2015, 08:29 PM

Can I ask how much they cost?

Way cool!

**DaHos** · 09-02-2015, 06:30 AM

Lookin good jon !

hows the ride on our lovely roads we have.......lol

jondancer · 09-02-2015, 09:59 PM

Honestly it was a better ride on those bigger 15" tires ! Time for an air ride system maybe

Security guy · 09-02-2015, 10:09 PM

I made the switch from 15's to the 20's a little while ago too.. The 20's are a much harder ride because of the small rubber.. but anywho, I love your truck! Sell it to me! lol.. Looks really good...

jondancer · 09-06-2015, 04:42 PM

**Advanced Design** · 09-06-2015, 05:11 PM

Looks good! Saw your truck with the new wheels on FB the other day.
