Default Pics with new 20" Centerlines....

I put these on a couple of weeks ago. They are Centerlaine Tomahawk Escape's, 20x8. The tires are Hankook Ventus 275-45-20. I took a chance on the Hankooks rather than going with the GTII's. I had GTII's before on my '95 Lightning and they were actually pretty crappy, especially in the rain. These Hankooks are nice tires. They are just as cheap as the GTII's, they have excellent traction, quite ride and they look way better with their directional tread pattern.

The wheels are rated @ 25 lbs. each. If I remember correctly, the stock allow wheels and tires are 45lbs. each, while these are just a tad heavier @ 49lbs. I also Zoopsealed the wheels to help preserve their shine.

The truck also has a 2" leveling kit on it, thanks to ProDyno in Tempe!

I have a Centerline and Hankook package as well (i have the stingray III's and 245/40 tires though) I can't be happier with the overall package. I'm trying to sell my current package...but you better believe my next wheel/tire package is going to be centerline/hankook

btw, wheels look good on your truck

Wow, nice That's a very light wheel too. I took off my 20's with the GTII's and they were lighter than my stocker's with the beefy *** tires I had on them. I'll be getting some 22's in a couple weeks, but I want them to not weigh a lot and look good.

What backspacing did you get on those wheels? The setup is looking good.

The 8" wide ones have a 5" backspace.

Thanks for the compliments. The whole Zoops process only took 2 hours. I did it on the workbench, before I mounted the tires on them.
