My dad might be selling his factory wheels, but they do have some slight corrosion. I can ask him if you're interested or do you want a perfect set?

So, this is why you txt'd me earlier! :lol:

Not the best picture in the world. But, these are what I had on the truck..

And, like I said earlier, they're gone.. But, I thought I'd post the pics, in case you wanted to see other options.

Personally, I never cared for the wheels that came on the truck. That's one reason I got the Gunner 6's so quickly. :lol:

Yeah. Those are one of my least favorites too Michael. I couldn't remember what you had.

Yeah... It had 20's like that on it, along with an up-charge for them. I tried to get them to swap out for wheels I liked better, but they wanted some crazy about of money more on top of the up-charge for the 20's that were already on it. So, I asked about putting some 18's on it and they went for that.. and knocked $1000 off the price of the truck. So, I went with that, figuring I could spend the $1000 on something I actually liked. :lol:

I'm doing some experimenting. I can go to a 17 inch OEM wheel and tire combo and lose over 13 pounds per corner. I want to see what effect it has on acceleration and economy.

I'll probably keep the 20s for a future Tahoe or Suburban project. Prices are dropping on them since gas is high!

Ok, wow.. You're farther north than I thought, Dennis! I guess half-way would be somewhere in MT or WY! :rollin:

Those 17s look great with an aggressive tire :thumbs:
It's more the weight of the tire than the size that kills performance :uhoh:

If I didn't need wheels in the mean time I'd trade straight across :lol: :eek:

You two could do a meet in Kansas or somewhere and just swap wheels! :thumbs:

And I moved 9 hours to get this far South! :D2

I need my passport :facepalm:
