they are plastic and unless anyone changes wheels it will be hard to get a set you will need 17" wheels and the centercaps old caps and wheels will not work before i spent all the cash on the wheels tires and simulators and caps i would invest in a set of moto metal dually wheels they look the same

I'll have some shortly. Mine is supposed to be in around 10/14. Next to the 5/7 slam and airbags, the stock wheels will be getting pitched.

can aso look into 03-07 dodge wheels. they are 17" and bolt up great. i have them on my truck now. they have more offset, you can run wider tires on the rear, also brings the tire flush with the rear fenders. they look way better.........

Like to see some pictures of the dodge wheels on a chevy. I hope they are not the ugly chrome wheels dodge has.

Hey DMax~Go to Pacificdualies.com, they are who I got mine from, if you have an 08 with 17's not sure if they have them yet, my 2007.5 has the 16's. They are made of 304 Stainless and look like they are going to do great for now. Would like to go to Alcoa's but just to much bread for now.

DMax I see now you have 19.5's didn't notice that before, Pacific I'm sure can help you as they are the primos for simulators

I saw some on ebay last night. They were asking $800 for the four wheels w/caps & six tires plus $250 shipping.

I am amazed at how different the wheels are. The holes around the outside are more like triangles, making "spokes". They are super straight with not much run-out at all. My '98 steel insides had so much run-out, I could never get rid of a small vibration from them. I expected it again on this one, but even with 6 steels it was super smooth. The 17s are completely different rims. They went to some awesome lug nuts, too.
