ya you know how life is... spending more time surfing than wrenching... its more painful but easier on the wallet. haven't been brave enough to take the 53 to the beach.. too many abrasives.... still pop in on the site to see how your all doing though

I know right. I have kicked myself a hundred times now for selling it. But I have a couple more in the works. Im still looking for a truck to build and keep but I havent found one with the patina like I want it.

15x7 5x4.75 bolt pattern. I got them raw and had them powder coated in town. They can also chrome them. All built to order. Not badly priced for a custom wheel.

Thanks. I'll give them a call. I need some 18" smoothies, but I have a feeling they're going to be cost-prohibitive.

Check their web site www.thewheelsmith.net
If you want 18" they will be the billet alum. They list 16", 17", 18" in aluminum.
Steel Smoothies are 14", 15", 16". So yes the 18" will be more I'd guess.
You may be able to deal with them a little, it's worth a try..

Very nice. I hate the look of a chop on AD trucks when the truck is not low enough. It kills the lines. This truck proves how great a chop looks when the truck is set down low.

I agree. I usually don't care for many chops, but he did an incredible job all around on this truck.
