Jason,

Is the other truck a 4x4? If so could you post a picture of one of the front wheels. I am curios to see how they handle the lock out hubs on the front. I want toe see what the hub cover looks like I guess.

It is a 4X4 but...... It is a Chevy....... OOOHHHHH GOD I cannot believe I just posted THAT..... Let the beatings begin.....

So, there is no lockout hub. It looks just like the solid center cap on the rear wheels. I would be willing to bet it would look pretty sharp though! My main tire center is an Ultima dealer so I have had a few sets and they always look good IMO. I know when I put the set on my "other" truck my neighbor was pissed because he had to go get a set then:-)

I got screwed on craigs list, and I have been looking too. Some people around here want almost 600 for the lariat wheels. I can get new DC for 200 more. I am torn on the polished or the ones in the picture above.

I am also not 100% sure they even offer them in the 18" SD bolt pattern either.

Yes tire rack allows you to view different wheels on your truck. For the SD line they are using an 04 xtended cab to show you.

Those are hella nice. I am pleased with the Extreme's that I have but I am partial to holes in the rims on the truck and spokes on the car. Cant wait to see your final choice, D

Too tough to call..... I like them both! I may be a little old school but the pollished ones would look pretty darn good to. My other truck is all black and the chrome really pops!

I should not have even commented.... I'm no help.... I like them both too much.

I got it!!!! Buy another truck and put one set on each:-)
