New wheels!

[pizza pig]

Very happy that I kept this truck and finding time to install the stock pile of parts I've had! So Last weekend I put the new wheels on, been sitting on these for over a year and super happy to see them on the truck.

Have new GM injectors for the truck just need the time to install them. Also have to set aside time for Evan, so he can take the truck and pile of trans parts and build the trans in prep for the turbo kit soon after. :thumb:


Wheels are AE 508 20x10 -25 offset. Pretty sure these are still the only set of these in 8 lug. The tires are 305/50/20 Nitto 420 - per usual

Thanks guys, here are some crappy pictures

Have plans to paint match the front bumper plastics and run an SS grille paint matched with black mesh. As well.

Hellen Keller sent this?

Slick ride.

I'll be honest, not a fan of "directional" wheels per say

Im right there with you, I've always been OCD with directional wheels... Yet I ended up with these :rofl: Wish they matched on each side, kind of bugs me. But I just stare at the passenger side :spit:

I think they look really good but IMO you need to get the truck a little lower

I agree. Right now, the front is cranked 6 full turns, and drop shackles only in the rear.

Im thinking of the DJM 3/5 kit using the LCA's and rear hanger/shackle kit w/ removed the overload and rancho shocks. Only thing is, I already rub the metal portion of the bumper on the driver side at this height . I want to avoid cutting the bumper. I refuse to do that, it looks cheap and hacked

. So I'm planning to remove the overload out back and see how it sits. If it doesnt rub with rear down to sit even with the front, than I will move forward with my plans :thumb:
