Yeah they are a lot more expensive than I expected too. Looks like cast alloy wheels are cheaper maybe they don't have to be machined. Steelies are also about 40lbs each of extra weight on the car

I'm in agreement that gawdy wheels are unnecessary for an old truck. Even the ridler 645s that caught my eye come in a gunmetal so it tones down the chrome a bit.
