Stumbled across the 15” 8 lug slot mags on a local CL


Gotta do some grinding on the front calipers to get a 15” rim over it

How did you redo the stripes but keep them looking old?

That second one looks very short...

Length or height? Says came out of a mid 90s chevy truck.... I was assuming a full size. What's up with the super long support bars on the 3rd one? Any one know why they are made like that?

I'm really leaning towards the 3rd, I keep seeing smiley lights and a thick canvas strapped over the top and stretched tight to corners.

I think they made them like that to clear a toolbox.

I have a fleet side bed so step side will work just fine. The #2 is the only guy that answered as still has it. So I'm going to make a trip this weekend most likely to pick it up, also found a set of zz4 aluminum cylinder heads for a decent price I'm going to grab on the way.
