does anyone know what year lightning wheels are currently being offered aftermarket in chrome?

and what is the bolt pattern (size)? is it 5 on 5 or 5 on 5 1/2?

You can get the '01 and up style in chrome, which is 5x135

You can get the 99 style in chrome as well, in 5x135

You can also get the '99 and 01 style in 5x5.5...but only in silver. They did make some in chrome, but they're sold out now.

I'm putting a 351w in my 67 f-100, and thinking of going with a lightning theme. maybe the only 1967 Ford Lightning...just a thought

Cool idea!Check out stock GenI L wheels on an older truck.The old 79 has a 351C with an AOD and 3.50 gears.Old trucks are fun.

The link doesn't want to work but I think I have the pic in my album on here too.The GenI wheels can be had much cheaper than the new style wheels and I like them a lot.I have seen them at swap meets $350-$500.Search member galleries-1995--f150 lightning,three galleries came up mine is one of them.Did I mention I like the GenI wheels on the old trucks?

those wheels are nice, but I'm looking for more of a pro-touring look for my truck. I'm beginning a frame off restoration. I plan on a 351w backed by a mustang style (prolly tremec) 5-speed.
truck will be show and go. cruise ins and weekend drives mostly
