indeed, welcome! good call on not getting the chrome center caps. i liked mine when i first got them before they went from "chrome center caps" to "rusty chrome center caps". im just gonna paint them black and be done with it. i would paint over those hubs though if i were you, they kinda stand out.

looks great on your black beast!

Thanks guys... the chrome caps are on the way... I'm going to have them Line-Xed or just spray paint them... We'll see..

I don't know if I want to come over now Tom.. Sean's gonna "borrow" my interior... and Daryl is probably going to want to "borrow" my new rims.. :roll:

I'm sensing another wellsville run in the spring also... Maybe summer... But not until I'm locked... Jon's misfortune up that hill scared me.. and won't do it again until I'm locked..

Nice wheels. I like the Line-X. How much did that cost? Did you pay to have it done or DYI?
