I would go with the stock 8 holes (1st link in post)
They are cheaper and closer...also basiclly the same design

The wheels look a little rough but I bet with a little elbow grease and a good polisher they would clean up! The price is not bad either!! s**t can the tires though ! Good luck!!

Just talked to him, he said he took them off b/c he lifted his truck and put bigger wheels on it. Said the rims are in good shape, no damage. I'll pick them up tomorrow or Sunday.

Thanks again for all your help guys.

I picked the wheels up last night and two of the tires are in very good condition. But I have never heard of them.

Jetzon revenger a/t 285/75 R16 load range D

So should I buy two more of these tires and put them on my truck or switch my current tires on to these rims? My tires are still in very good shape.

Put ur tires on those wheels...
Just a tip though, they will be much easier to polish without tires on them

Id have the 2 good no name tires put on 2 of ur old wheels that are in good shape... U know for burnout and drag racing

I like the way you think Jim!

That is exactly what I will do. My father-in-law just informed me last night that he has a tire machine in his shop so I will take the tires off tonight and start polishing them up.
