What do yall think?

Sorry to get off topic, but what did you do to remove the "bumps" on your truck’s rear step bumper that the redundant bumper braces are bolted with?
If you don’t mind me asking.

I do like those wheels by the way.  

Mines the older step bumper version; It never had the outer braces on it.




The polished, clear coated version of the renegade wheel is $70 less per wheel....   What are the advantages to paying the extra $280 for chrome?  The chrome should outlast the clear coat, but I maintain my vehicle paints and such pretty well.

extra $280 for chrome? summit has them in chrome for like $280 and like $120 for reg. polished, but from what I seen they were polished only no clear coat, or maybe they had machined finish clear coated?

It's about $280 extra over a set of 4, sorry...  it's about $65-$70 less for the polised wheels each.

I emailed raceline to ask if they are clear coated.  If they are, I'll get the polished ones.  Now I need to decide if I want 16's or 18's.  I'm thinkin 18's but I'll need new tires.  18's would be sweet! and about a 33" tire.  guess I can always sell the tires I have now...

[Swims350]

good idea, 16's or 15's for me lol.

[78 Chevyrado]

I looked up the renegade 8's.   The polished are not clear coated.   So If I get them I'll get the chrome ones.

I'm going to get the 18x8.5's  If I get 16's I'll just wish I had 18's later...lol

And for tires I want goodyear wrangler silent armor, 265/70R18.  

[78 Chevyrado]

I think Im going to hurry up and get the wheels quick as i can.  I went by the goodyear place and the guy quoted me 50% off the silent armors.  They were $255 each.  265/70R18  for $126 each     Screamin deal
My quotes good till Aug 12, so I gotta git-r-done!

50% off!  WOW!

[78 Chevyrado]

50% off!  WOW!

That's what I thought.  I didnt even read the quote till I got home...   Glad its in writing...




By the way,   Has anybody had any experiences withhttp://www.polyperformance.com/?

I think I'm going to get my wheels there.  The BS i want is an oddball not many places carry or can get (so they say)  so I want to get it from these guys, I'd just like to know if they're any good before I give them a $G for rims.

[78 Chevyrado]

Well, I ordered 2 of my wheels.  Raceline "renegade 8"  Chrome, 18x8.5, 4.75"BS, 0 Offset.  I'll get the next 2 next week most likely.

[78 Chevyrado]

2 of the wheels showed up today.  I likey!    I'll get some pics up later, I'm gonna hang one on there and see how I like the backspacing, and figure out which tire and what lug nuts I want....

[78 Chevyrado]

I likey....  18x8.5",  4.75"BS, 0-offset.   The rim on the new wheels will be 2 inches farther out than on the old 16's
