I keep going back and forth... I like the directional look most of the time. I just really can't find anything I'm like "Yes, this is the wheel I absolutely want" because I already had that, but don't want them in black, nor do I trust Hostile anymore. I just finally made a choice and stuck with it. If he comes back that the Cyclones are majorly out of stock or very low stock then I'll probably switch to the black rhino's. Not sure what will happen yet. I do know that I'll be keeping my spike lugs, and will be getting them powder coated in the near future.

I didn't ever really like it either, still not sure how I feel about it. It's all so rushed at this point I can't stop to overthink it. Lol. Between trying to figure this out quickly, looking for a job full time (unemployed), and working on my parents house helping get that back together there's not a lot of time to overthink anything.

Got the new wheels installed yesterday! Don't have the greatest pics, the truck is filthy with pollen, and just didn't have time before dark yesterday. They look better than I expected, and I'm happy with how it came out. I miss the flash of my old wheels, but these look great. VERY different style, but it pulls it off. At this point I'm leaving my lug nuts chrome.

Thanks Summers! I got them from Amazon, it now says I ordered lug nuts for a suburban but the thread pitch should be the same, they also seem to have changed over to purely spline lug nuts as an extra safety feature (mine are not). Not sure why it changed the order in my Amazon order history, but it did. They've got a little rust on them (they never got waxed, or washed very well when my wheels did, oops) so I need to spend some time on them but I think they'll clean up nicely. I'll likely sand them, then spray with a few coats of clear. Heard people talk up the Rustoleum wheel clear coat, so I may snag some of that when I get some time.
