Thanks, they have held up well except for that one in the pic. LOL it has surface rust or something right around where the center mounts to the rim part. And there is a spot on the surface that is kinda rough feeling where the powder coat isn't smooth anymore?? I tried to see if I could get it replaced but they only have a 90 day warranty and it had been almost a year. I don't take the truck off road but I do park it on the side of my driveway in the dirt everyday, so when it's rainy and stuff they do get muddy and dirty. Overall I'm very happy with them. I still need to get some center caps and chrome lugs though. They've been on the truck two years now and that one rim is the only one that has had an issue.

I didnt get the center caps either. I debated on going with chrome or black lugs. I went with the chrome, plus they are long enough that I dont scratch the rims whenever i use a 4 way lug wrench. I would post a pic but I my account says I may not post attachments

Kirby, where did you find cragers with a 5x5.5 bolt pattern. I have been looking for an old school set for my resto.

Summit Racing, they say you have to have 1/4" wheel spacers for the knock offs to clear the dust cap but I've heard you can hammer a dent in the cap or just take em off. Others said they didn't have to do anything and the wheels fit just fine. I think this is attributed to Cragars having different backspacing per year model?
