So a few days ago UPS showed up with the new wheel, I'm looking at the box and the sumbitch is 20x8.5, not 20x10. Refused shipment on it. They loaded up the damaged wheel too on the call tag. Called Summit, guess whoever I talked with screwed it up as the call tag shows 20x10 but the replacement order had the wrong part # on it...jeezus. Anyway they had the 10's back in stock so they were able to overnight it to me, got here yesterday, hopefully manage to get the tires mounted up today and wheels onto the truck. Pics to follow. :)

Awwwww yeaaahhh... :gr_grin:

Popped the old Centerlines off, cleaned up and quickie painted all the hubs, calipers, leafs, etc. since they'll now be visible. Had the tires mounted up and they balanced great with minimal weight needed in just one spot on each wheel. The fronts are 20x8.5 with Toyo Proxes ST2 255/45/20, rears are 20x10 with Toyo Proxes ST 295/45/20. These are XL load rated tires so they're great for this application. Held on with a full set (all 20 lugs) of Gorilla "The System" locking lugs, the kind where the keyed portion is unique (not generic like the typical spline lugs) and is recessed close to the wheel to make it more difficult to hammer anything over them.

Pix of the lugs? $$$?
I had one (dumbass!) shop use an impact & a socket with no plastic insert re-install my wheels when I wasn't looking. The chrome has since began to peel! And they're F'n sharp!!!
Looked at spline drives, but ahhh, too rice.

*Edit* Those wheels look damn good on your truck!!!!
I'm a bit biased, though! Lol!

The key slots are literally right at the depth of the lug hole in the wheel. If the wheel has small lug holes like these Boss, or many Centerlines, etc. that require a special thin socket for the most part - you literally don't have enough room to hammer a socket into these. All that is exposed is the smooth, round part.

Sure, if a thief is skilled and determined, they'll get them. But these should keep the amateurs away.

I picked them up at a local custom tire/wheel shop, but you can find 'em on eBay, Amazon, etc. just be sure you get the duplex ones for the truck so they're the long style. 76643N for 5 lug (20 in the box), 76644N for 6 lug (24 in the box) - should be the style you want, but double check on Gorilla's site to be sure. Also have 'em in black chrome if you add BC to the end of that part #. http://www.gorilla-auto.com/the-system-page-02
