Those are chromed Silverado SS wheels on Quik's truck. I believe they are 20x8.5

btw.. are your 219 18x9.5 or 18x8? If you dont get that one repaired, I may be willing to take them off your hands.

I see. How bad can a rim be before it cant be repaired? They are the 18x9.5.

Plenty of choices out there. Do you want a cast wheel, billet, or what. Narrowing it down to just and 18" makes it tough.

Not real up to date on rims but i would like something that is on the light side for weight. Fill me in on cast, billet. Not real sure on whats better, but i guess im not looking to break the bank if that is the difference in them. Also i would like something that i can run a 285/50/18 tire on. So post up some ideas for me. If you know of any pics of the rims that you can suggest please post them. Thanks.

As long as the rim is not broken or twisted too bad, they can usually be repaired. Do you have a pic of the dammaged wheels?

As for new wheels, here are a few that I looked at prior to getting my 219s
Boze Stinger6 http://www.bozeforged.com/
Bonspeed Malibu http://www.bonspeedwheels.com/
Centerline StingrayIII http://www.centerlinewheels.com/
Intro Pentia6 http://www.introwheels.com/home_0.shtml
Budnix Tiller6 http://www.budnikwheels.com/
You can get all of them in a 18x8.5 or wider to accommodate a 285/50/18. They aren't cheap though.
