King Ranch Wheels

I ordered an '08 KR with the regular 18" wheels. I don't like the Pueblo gold accents though - the 20" wheels don't have the gold.

1. I have looked and so far it seems the tires I have liked the most on my current truck are not available in 20"

2. What kind of handling difference can I expect between 18" and 20"?

3. Can the gold accent on the polished rims be buffed/polished out and the aluminum repolished?

Opinions please. Thank you.

One of my customers in the Atlanta area is "Keystone Automotive Industries"


They are mostly body shop and crash parts wholesale, but they also have wheel repair / refinishing in house. I picked up a replacement KR wheel a couple of years ago and they took the damaged one in on trade. I think the difference was about $130.

So, I'm quite sure that they could refinish your wheels and get rid of the gold for you. They have locations all over the country and only sell wholesale, but someone is always willing to assist.

I'm sure they can point you to a location in your area. The finish quality was no different from my OE wheels.
Their corporate info is:
