Look at this site someone posted this I think they have good prices.
Weld Forged Wheels
I have a 93 GMC truck with 10'' wheels well I went to switching them out to 8" forget it the front wheels look like they stick out more that the back ones maybe because I have running boards so I put back my old 10" wheels with the tires I had bought, now 16" wheels look good I wouldn't go with a 20" wheel they just don't look good on our year trucks to me. The wheels below are 16" now these are the wheels I like this truck looks BAD and the owner is a cool guy I hope he doesn't mind that I posted his truck here I can get the size for you if you want meaning back spacing and all just PM me.

Well, I found someone with the originally mentioned Chambers... 17x9, 5x5, and $705 gets five rims, lug nuts, valve stems, and shipping.

So I am going to wait a day or two, beat myself up over it, and see if anything else I find strikes my fancy.

I'll be broke when I get home, but I'll have a purty wheels lmao

yeah 20s dont look good unless you lower the truck and make the control arms narower if it has ifs... the kit i bough comes with narrowed control arms so i can tuck 22s but im gonna get 20s fo rthe front and 24s for the rear but all will be tucks under quit nicly

LRChevy · 11-13-2008, 08:36 PM

I like the stock look for the most part, never really been interested in lifting/lowering this truck. That's why I was looking at 16/17" wheels. It has 15's on it now, but they just look too small to me. Anything over 17 would look ridiculous too, IMO.

It has a nice purr... making it all blingy looking or putting huge wheels on it would just mess it up for me haha

Thanks for everything guys! I'm almost sure I'm going to go with the 17" ones

87c10slammer · 11-13-2008, 08:38 PM

yeah they are a nice compliment for a stock truck.... your right anything bigger and things start to get out of proportion....

I would go with a different off-set for the rear wheels for the reason is the front axle is wider than the back one plus I would get 17" wheels like the ones I posted. Oh did you buy the wheels yet?
