If someone came up with the cash Id sell it but thats not going to stop me from having fun with it while it's mine. I mean everything is for sale for the right price right?

1lowdiesel · Apr 1, 2008

very true, where did you get the wheels?

5.slow · Apr 2, 2008

Some truck dealer about 40 miles from where I live.

how did you paint those

pwork · Apr 2, 2008

Jeez, thanks for mounting those, jackazz, not like I don't have too many projects already! J/k, Looks great. I'm horrible at finishing work, can you give us a step by step on how you painted the wheels with a mat'l list? I'm defiantly going to have to do that to mine.

Not really much to it. I taped off all the stuff I didn't want to paint ( the stuff that wasn't painted silver) and just threw a couple of coats of ultra flat black on it.

Looks Great.

4WARNED · Apr 2, 2008

That looks sweet. I really like the 08 factory center caps.

I would put the sport mirrors on your truck however. Just my opinion

DMAX Will · Apr 3, 2008

Those rear tires look pretty bald

You gonna leave the centercaps on or off? It'd like kinda goofy runnin Chevy caps on a GMC

5.slow · Apr 3, 2008

I am probably going to make stickers to cover up the chevy emblems on the center caps but I haven't decided yet.

Also my truck has really no gmc emblems and it has silverado taillights so I doubt anyone would know anyway.

FWIW, z-71 pkg. is basically bilsteins, skid plate, and a G-80 in the rear. but that's just my experience with it.

Trotorx2 · Apr 3, 2008

Those look good. Any chance of a close up pic?

5.slow · Apr 3, 2008

This one is as close as I got.

83gmck2500 · Apr 3, 2008

What are the dimensions and specs of those wheels? Are they the same as the H2s?

5.slow · Apr 3, 2008

No, these are 17x7.5 and the H2s are 17x8.5. Im not sure about the offsets

Trotorx2 · Apr 3, 2008

Thanks for the close up. I'll have to start looking around here to see if I can find a truck with those wheels and see how they look before the paint. I wonder how they would look gloss black.

5.slow · Apr 3, 2008

Here is the otherside of the truck with the stock wheel unpainted.

I am still debating just doing them all black with a white pinstipe lip to match the truck. My friend got some reflective blue wheel tape that we put on his R6 and I really liked the way it came out. Im just not sure how the look would transfer over to a pickup. Whatever another project for another sunday I guess.

Trotorx2 · Apr 3, 2008

Thanks for the OEM shot. I prefer the black look over stock for sure.

Smashed Ixnay · Apr 3, 2008

I really loved the look of your truck when you posted those pics that is in your avatar. It still looks good now though. Why you selling it?

My dad has a CC SB 07 classic and we really don't need two diesel trucks in the family. I would rather just have someting cheaper to drive around in.

mpriceduramax · Apr 3, 2008

love the wheels. ill be sending my LTZ 17's off to the powdercoating this fall.

mendo247 · Apr 4, 2008

Nice work! Looks so much better than stock! I have a set of those and may play around with them a bit now.

paoutdoorsman · Apr 5, 2008

5.slow, any chance you weighed one of those wheels before mounting tires?
