Sweet looking truck! You do a 5 lug conversion on it or what? Firehawk wheels? What drop you have in it? Sucker is FINE!

Very nice truck!

Please tell us more about the 5 lug conversion. There are alot more nice looking wheels with 5 lugs than 6. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I bought 2 piece adapters from Motorsport Technology for $575 to me. I only went to adapters after seeing some Z06 wheels on a V6 stepside truck in New Orleans. He said he hasn't had a problem in over a year, even with towing. He gave me a copy of his invoice and I took it from there.

I think I might try and find some 1500HD wheels to put on. I photoshopped a set on the truck and it doesn't look too bad. IMO <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

i think i'll be trying to find some 6 lug 18's i like instead of the 5 lugs i was looking at. i had no idea it would cost that much for adapters.</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yeah, good adapters do cost. They way I figured it was the only 6-lug rims I'd have bought were $2k anyways. The cost of the C5 repro's and the adapters cost that much, and I'm much happier with the C5 wheels.
