Lug nuts, center caps and lug cover arrived and she's off to the tire shop. I thought this was a cool shot.

Here's a couple of quick pics with the new wheels, I'll get some better ones after it gets a bath.

IMO those are by far the best looking wheels for a dually.

That is one of my dream trucks!!! And the only thing I would change is the tinted windows. I don't like dark tint. But it's a big block powered White dually with red interior! Would look sweet towing my hot rod!

nice looking rig! I love white 2wds (dont have a non-white non-2wd 3500 yet... :) ) and IMO the alcoas look awesome on these.

Say, what is to become of your old OEM lenses? I have one that the corner is broke out and needs replaced.

The factory head light housings were trashed, the lenses were yellow'd and not worth saving. Both of my parking lights were cracked in the lower corners near the mounting holes. Sorry man.

So after the Alcoa install on the tires that came with the truck, it was apparent that I had 2 tires that wouldn't balance. I went to a couple of tire shops and they tried balancing beads, turning the tires on the wheels and moving them to different locations on the truck. Nothing worked. Horrible vibrations that started about 45 mph and 65 mph was all you could stand.

I bit the bullet and bought a set of Michelin Defender's this morning from Discount Tire. Night and day difference. The truck is smooth and has no vibration anywhere.
