Exclamation New wheels!

Well, I told you I would upload a pic of my truck after the new rally wheels went on. After buying some silverado steel wheels and some astro van hubcaps, I painted the wheels black and put everything together.

Here it is...

Exclamation For truckdriver...

$16.00 for the rims and trim rings on eBay + $70.00 for shipping
$40.00 for the hubcaps + $15.00 shipping
$15.00 for 2 cans of spray paint and one can of clear coat
$60.00 for mounting and balancing and new valve-stems.

16+40+15+60+15+70= $216.00

Not a bad deal for an awesome set of wheels.
Plus, I'll get about $180.00 for my wheels if I scrap them as aluminum.

$216.00 - $180.00 = $36.00!

Thumbs up I understand.

Not too sure yet if I like the hubcaps either. However, the pic doesn't really do it's justice. It kinda makes the hubcaps look weird. I'll try to upload some better pics tomorrow.
