Rims

97SierraGMC · June 25, 2009

I bought a set of 16x8 American Racing Baja's Polished

they stick out about 1.5" out of the wheel wells which i think looks sweet but now im considering a 2" body lift.

ill post pics tomorrow of the rims on my truck.

also on a truck with a 2" body lift and a leveling kit w/ add-a-leaf do you think a 285 tires would look small?

Heres a Pic: (From American Racing's Website)

Ah Ha,so that's what they're called.My wifey's Burb has 'em,put on by the previous owner.I often wondered what the style name was.They are very nice rims.

What's wrong with your current rims? Didn't you just get them? I like them better.

the friend that i was buying them from wanted them back i guess plus the chrome was peeling off so i bought these instead. and these are polished so i never have to worry about that plus i can run them all year round.

Riggs may I ask how much those 16"x8" rims ran you? I'm in the market for the same size, it's just tough finding something in that small of size that looks good.

97SierraGMC · June 28, 2009

Well they are about $600 brand new i spent $250, i also had to buy 4 new center caps @ $11.88 a piece and then a lug nut / valve stem / lock kit which was $71.41

Here in Ca. if you have off-road lights you have to have covers on them or risk getting a ticket.There might a watt output max/min on that requirement.My little lights are only 55 watts so I haven't had a prob.I've known guys who have left their covers off and gotten a ticket,but theirs were 100 +
