Default Torq Thrusts - Help

I was told that American Racing has a Torq Thrusts wheel for a 6 lug GM Truck. The only one I can find on their website is the one that has the machined lip with the gray center. I'm looking for a Torq Thrusts for my truck that would be all Chrome or Polished Aluminum in a 18x8 or 18x8.5?

Those Torque Thrust wheels with Nitto Drag radials look sick on his truck. He used to have either 20's or 22's, and belive me...it looks WAY better now IMO.

The Boyd Smoothie 2s and the Torq-Thrust ST look very similar but the Boyd's are about $100 more per wheel. I was about to place an order for the Torq-Thrust ST 18 x 8.5 and some Nitto 404 285/50/18 but my wife reminded me that she has to pay for her tuition and books (After this semester she will have a Master of Business Administration). So it looks like it will be a few more months before i get my wheels.
