Where are you guys finding Sport rims for an older Truck?
« on: March 19, 2008, 09:02:05 pm »
I've got an 81 Chevy C10 that we're currently restoring/lowering and I want something modern, sporty and rockin for rims but I can't find barely anything in the 5x5" bolt pattern in 20"s and 22"s rim size.

Where are you guys sourcing these products?

Thanks.

just do a google search you'll spend endless hours finding wheels. What you need to figure out is what size wheel and tire you want with what back spacing.

Thanks for the quick reply. I've tried Google and out of the thousands of options there is only a few that will fit the 5 on 5" bolt pattern in 20's and 22's. Last night I went through AmericanRacing and out of hundreds of rims only 5 would fit.
