I really like Welds. Stone crushers come to mind first. I had a set of the centerlines one time with the star in the center and the ribs around the rim. Those were my favorite but can't get them in the size I need.

**special-K** · 09-26-2007, 09:27 PM

I wish Wels still made Outbacks.

I like the stock painted ones. I got a set of 5 chrome H2 wheels with bead locks and almost new all terrains cheap and put them on my '97 burb. I think they're to flashy, but I'm gonna sell it soon. I think the painted ones would look good on a vintage truck.

earl87gta · 09-27-2007, 12:45 AM

Man you make me drool all over myself every time you post up pics of your truck SeeTen! As I've told you before, that is one BEAUTIFUL truck, and I love those wheels on it! Very classic timeless look! ...Joe

earl87gta · 09-27-2007, 11:48 AM

you could always go full custom I hada set of recentered hummer wheels on my blazer. or you could get somthing like these.

earl87gta · 09-27-2007, 11:50 AM

I have a set of old wagon wheels I thought I would do this to diy4x has a USMC set I have been thinking I want to get.

Burt4x4 · 09-27-2007, 12:21 PM

Like this Earl:

H1 Recenterd with inserts (double bead lock)

I bought just the pressed centers from USA6x6 and PacificFab here in Cali did the re-centering for me.

FYI ~ If any of you EVER decide to buy from USA6x6 do NOT ASSUME they will get your order to you fast, they take for EVER, I mean MONTHS to get wheels or parts. Some guys have waited 6months only to have problems with the order and ship um back and forth...took me 2 months to get 5 centers and 5 inserts..when my order came it only came with 4 centers and 5 inserts..another two months down the road my 5th center finnaly showed up and I had to PM him week after week so he wouldn't foget about me.

Great products w/shooty customer service.....

earl87gta · 09-27-2007, 12:26 PM

Ya I wish I had pics of them on my burb house fire took care of that. I got my wheels from them one was not centered verry well and wobled I ended up geting one for half price from him and used the messed up one as a spair. It took for ever to get the first 4 but the 5th came quick. It seams like they are 50 50 with customer service. I know Stacy David from trucks was going to use him for Sgt rock and it got so bad he went to some one else for the rockwells and didnt say that the rims came from him on the show.

Burt4x4 · 09-27-2007, 12:38 PM

Crazy really, they could have so many more customers if they could streamline their production and stop making so many mistakes with what they build. People love their stuff once they get it and it is built right, it's getting past thoes two obsticals that kills the deal...

earl87gta · 09-27-2007, 01:32 PM

ya i guess he has enough buisness he doesnt need repeat customers. here is one other rim I was looking at.

i wanna throw theese on my rig they r the xd hoss rims they photoshoped them in there for now

Jim85IROC · 01-05-2010, 02:47 PM

I've got to say... to me, most of these modern wheels look absolutely terrible on the older trucks.

Jebb1978 · 01-09-2010, 12:14 PM

Benelli · 01-09-2010, 12:26 PM

No idea what the hell they're called, but I like 'em.

**71blksuper4x4** · 01-09-2010, 03:43 PM

84 400 · 01-09-2010, 08:31 PM

I am not a fan of new wheels on old trucks... Just don't look right to me. I like blacked wheels tho Wagons rallies or old turbins or slotts...... Not much of a fan of large wheels ether but to each there own

gman · 01-11-2010, 12:19 AM

I like these on our 4x4 trucks.........but I'm old.

i am deciding between 18s and 20s might go 20s cuz its not gonna have 35s on it forever and i got a buddy that works at schwabys and he said they had to send a set of those wheels back that were 17s becuase they looked so weird suposedly they look alot better bigger idk i guess all the spokes were to tiny on the 17 but its all up to your taste i guess he just knew i wouldnt like it
