I'm still up in Baltimore finishing up some courses for my job, but my girlfriend called and sent me a few pics of the wheels. I'll be going back home this weekend and have them installed on the Bee...FINALLY!

These are 20x9.5 with 4.5" backspacing. Stock wheels are 20x9 with 5.5" backspacing.

I think I'm gonna need bigger brakes to fill the void!

Thanks, I looked around for quite a while for a nice five spoke wheel and ended up with these. I hope to have pics of them installed either Friday evening or Saturday afternoon.

Nice truck...I checked out your CarDomain site, very impressive!

Don't mind at all...they ran me $2450 + $120 s&h ($642.50/wheel delivered). I actually went through GSMotorsports to get them. If you go on Intro's website, they are $2895/set.

$642.50 each? Damn! :eek2: Now I know why I run the stockers. Those wheels look really good but I just can't make myself spend that kind of money for wheels to add some bling.

Hahaha...well, these are nothing compared to the 22x9.5 Momo Storms I had on my '04 Esalade. They were $1032 each!!!

Hey, those look similar to mine. (not $$ though ;) )

I love the Intro V Rod. I was sssoo close to ordering a set of them a couple weeks ago. Just want my truck back first. Probably going with a set of Foose Nitrous now (if they can get my bolt pattern)

Intro V Rod 5 = :pimp:

I'll get better pics when I clean her up. I just got back and took a quick shot (sun isn't cooperating with a good photo right now).

Oh yeah, the owner had a BAD A$$ rig and showed up today while I was waiting...

Thanks guys...I'm very happy with the wheels. I was afraid with the 4.5" BS that they would stick out a lot, but they aren't bad at all!!!

They weigh in at 33 lbs while my stockers weighed 39.5 lbs, so I saved a little bit of weight.

I was just outside of Baltimore...in Linthicum Heights. It is just north of BWI off of MD-295. I was there for about 7 weeks taking some classes for work at MITAGS (Maritime Institute of Technology and Graduate Studies).

If I didn't use my 4wd ram for its intended purpose i would seriously consider those wheels for my truck

Yeah, my truck will see some light off-road duty, but not much. Mostly just beach running on the Outer Banks and some easy trails out in Tellico. An RCD 6" suspension lift and 35" Toyo Open Country M/T's are coming soon.

tones2SS - nope, I traded in the Escalade for my Rumble Bee. The damn thing had AWD and with those heavy 22's it just chugged down the gas...I was getting 10 around town and 14 highway. On top of that, taxes were killing me with it...$1200 the first year here in Virginia. Finally, I had no use for four doors and needed a truck bed for chores around the new house.
