Default No more FX4...and a wheel question...

I took the FX4 stickers off today and I am really glad that I did. The body lines show more now and it just looks cleaner overall. I also tinted the front windows to match the rears so the modding process has begun!

The question. I am very familiar with car wheels (Volks on my old Subaru...ADV.1's on my CTS-V) but I have been out of the truck modding scene for a really long time. What are the reputable wheel brands out there that I should be looking for a design that fits the look I am looking for in this build?

Sharp looking truck ! So shiny ! Clay Bar finish ?

I would trust any brand that TireRack carries... Tire Rack is a reputable reseller, and stands behind their products.

Hey Robb!
Method, Fuel, MT are a few that I see a fair amount. Method has broadened their lineup, are good quality, and reasonably priced. Fuel seems to be a bit "busy" looking for me. MT makes some decent looking rims. Maybe Dave Steck would CAD ya some sweet Finspeeds?!? There are a couple of cool options for nice custom center caps for Methods too.

I know Dave from the CTS-V world! I run the fuel pump setup he designed!

The Fuel brand seems to come up a lot. I really want this set of HRE's but I am not sure I want to spend that kind of money on truck wheels. I didn't mind doing it on the CTS-V with the ADV.1's but trucks see more abuse...

I'm shelteredV over there. He is (or was) the CAD guy at Finspeed, that's how I got my rims from him.

No kidding! Great to run into each other here. I can't wait to play with the truck some more. I don't think he works there anymore for some reason. I can't remember why...

those look like TR106 in bright black? That would look beyond hot, prolly don't want to know how much tho. I think the DSX gig really took off and is consuming all of Dave's time, that's what his end game was I think. Good for him, great products.
