Centerline Stingray III


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hey i was thinking about putting these on my green 03 z71 tahoe and was wondering if anyone had any pics of them on any vehicle. I saw somewhere that some guy had just put them on his yukon but i cant find the site... What is your opinion of these wheels??

What size tire would you run with these?? I'm not planning on dropping it or anything.

here is a link to the wheel http://www.centerlinewheels.com/wheels_det..._id=14&sw_id=76

Thanks in advance for any input

I looked at these wheels, but then I saw the Centerline Stingray wheel. I like that one better. Little more pricey than the Stingray III, though.

 

If I were you, I'd run 20 x 8 wheels, with 265/50/20 tires. That would be a good size that would fill the wheel-well, but would look good without lowering your rig.

Lazerguns,

 

I just put a set on a new Sierra SLT ExtCab 4x4 Quadrasteer in Pewter. The set I chose were 17 X 8 Polished mounted with Bridgestone Dueler Revo's in 265/70/17.

 

They are about an 1.5" taller than the 265/75/16's and the 8" wheel sticks out about 1" more than stock. They do a good job of filling up the wheel wells.

 

IMO they look great; classy, understatedand and not quite as flashy as the Stingrays or any chrome wheel. The size you chose should be based on use. Low profile 20's just don't work well off-road.

 

Cool Wheels has them in polished for $185 each.

 

I will try to get some pictures over the weekend.

I'd love to see those pictures too laser.... I've been looking for some new rims and these are nice. I think I would stay with the stock 16" rims as I will do some off-roading, now All I have to do is find out if they will stand up to the punishing of OFF ROADING??

 

Thanks.

    • Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver. 
    • Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....  
    • 4 low is really nice on steep boat ramps. 
    • Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.  
    • Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
