Those looks good and like the ideal of upgrading the brakes also.

Haha, I really like them so far. I am 75% sure I'll be replacing the rotors with solid rotors, but that's just because I want as much braking surface as possable.

Yeah, even the tires would last a few months lol, no cracking and probably 1/8" above the wear bars. It looked like the guy had to move fast because he had a dumpster out front and a for sale sign on the house. I think these are the nicest stock wheels I've ever had lol.

Not bad for free. I agree, they are a nice looking stock chrome wheel. Had them on my 03.

Got another good deal I couldn't pass up. I got two brand new 17x9 XD series spys (same ones on my truck right now) for 80 bucks.
