Aluminum slots wanted...

I'm looking for another set of the old school aluminum slots, local Craigslist searches over the past few months have come up empty, if anyone has a set they want to sell and freight isn't too ridiculous maybe we can work out a deal, let me know what you have....*must be 8 lug* thanks.

Happy 4th everyone!

Dang, there was a guy here a month or 2 ago that had a set of slots he said he might could turn loose of. I had dibs on them until I realized they wouldnt fit on my half ton as they were 8 lugs. I will search my posts for him and get back.

I`d be taking you up on the hurricanes except for the 16.5 part. BFG quit making 16.5`s (along with almost everybody else). And the only ones I can find now are mudder tires or other stuff which would be just about worthless on the road.

If you have 16's i'll take them too , but yea 16.5's, not a huge fan of the finned rims, slots are more my style, so if you have a pic so i can get an idea of their general condition that would be appreciated, then we can talk price in PM.
