You have one hell of a fine looking unit there. Personally, I like the spokes on the rears. Another plus is that I understand the spokes are stronger than their Budd counterparts and with heavy axles as you have, this may be beneficial.If the truck were mine, I would paint the rear rims body color, paint a red stripe around the outer tire bead sealing area of the rim, then put stainless centers on the hubs along with covers on the nuts.Hard to beat a truck that earns it's keep and looks good doing it.I think you have enough "brite work" there already, and it is not gawdy.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

PedroR Posted December 22, 2008 Author Share Posted December 22, 2008 i know what u mean about the spider hubs, they are stonger for sure but the main reason i want to change it is because i'm tired of spending half hour to one hour to get them rims straight every time i pull one out(yea im really crazy about running my rims straight), i dont knon maybe il take your advice and paint them green, i got to check how much everything is going to cost, before i do anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you could get a old tire man to show you how to true them up. I am like you they need to be with in 3/8 true when you turn them. But in soft dirt they are stronger than budds. glenn Quote glenn akers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
