Go search, there are members there that have yet to get a decent rim from them, they are constantly screwing up orders. I should say i have not herd any positive feedback from them. i have also a budy that also runs them, they have yet to get it right so he can go faster than 50 without a death wobble.

Listen.....cutts......just because everytime your neighbor goes by in his hybrid you get a woody, that is no reason to say silly things about nice trucks. Besides, we all know real trucks have a bed.

ultimately i like the hummer beadlock idea the best, you just have to get them re-centered some how. im thinkin about lookin into it myself, one guy did this in our local bronco chapter and hes really happy with the setup.

6x6 is horrible to deal with. I have a buddy who bought a set took him over a year to get everything straightened out. if it was not something that got damaged in shipping the back spacing was different on all rims or the centers were not straight and could not be driven on the street without looking like a clowns vechile with the wobbly rims.



I got a set of stazworks 20's, they are very nice just took a long time to get them. not to mention they are heavy.
