Exactly what I thought. The killer of it all, was that they were 16.5's. IF they were 16.5's in 8 lug for my 14b Full Float conversion I'd consider 16.5s. Sky is the limit and much cheaper for 15's. Not sure what I'll run when I go 8 lug. I guess prolly 16's.

I think I have found my replacement wheels. ION 171's. 15x10 max offset and a deep dish!

I'd do it. And they aren't black. Not liking black wheels to much myself.

Wow. I love craigslist! I picked up a used set of the first wheels I wanted for $200 bucks Sat! And best of all they are in almost brand new condition. Luck finally swung my way! :favorites13:

Cool, but they are ones you wanted but discontinued huh? Whooda thunk that could happen? But, that's how it's done. Be patient and keep eyes open. Imann scored some awesome Centerlines that were even in 6 lug. I'da rocked the hell outta them too. I didn't even know you could get that Centerline in a truck size let alone a 6 lug.
