Ahhh what the hell, dropping it off for a new set of snow tires tomorrow so I thought I'd have a nice sending off party for my old Winterforce rubbers.

Oh I will soon. :)

Been eyeballing a few on ebay, just have to make up my mind.

I want to see if the same seller is will work out a deal on shipping if I get wheels for my truck and our new car from him. :D

These coming in chrome, black or Charcole.
Since the bottom half of my truck will be dark grey I like the Charcole finish.

I think the ADR 18"s are tight, but wouldn't they be hard to clean?

John what happened to the set of rims that were modeled off the old IROC rims that you were looking at? I fell in love with those and was hoping thats what you would end up with :lol:

Yeah but well worth it. I think they will match the style of car they will be going on perfectly. You all will hopefully get to see that in a couple of weeks.

Well, as much as I like the IROC replica's, on my truck I don't think they will match up well. If I had a first generation S10 like RJs, then they would be perfect.
That last rim is damn tight!!!! Are the spokes twisted a little bit?Yes, they do twist, look kind of like a turbine. They are also arched too. I have never seen them on a car in person yet, let alone a truck like mine.
I really like the Torque Thrust style of the first for my truck, but a lot of people have similar ones.

Torque thrusts all the way!! especially in black like those. Maybe a 19" in front and 20" in back even.. that may look good also.

20" all around or 20" front and 22" rear if anything. WHen I'm done with a full custom cab back frame and suspension I will be lying plastic hard and would like to tuck as much wheel as I can. Since I'm not body dropping it I could even get away laying it out on 22"s all around. :)

Kelly, the first wheel posted is a TorqueThrust made by American Racing. I am pretty sure they have them for the GA.

Yeah I would have but wanted to make sure I could get home. lol
Since installing the hidden hitch I no longer have a spare tire under the back. That is what AAA is for. lol

I think I'm leaning towards these since I havent seen any S10s with them yet.
