They are 18x8.5. I'm going to get some GMC centercaps.

What size tires you plan on running? I can't find any in 18" with a 30" diameter. I can get new take off's in 18" with tires for $500 at work but the 265/65R18 are to tall. Wish Nitto still made the 285/50R18 404

I don't know what size tires I will be moving to. I run a 30in tire on my 17s and IF I do that on the 18s, it'll be an AT tire. I don't want that.

It'll probably be a 29in or 29.5in tire to keep me in the street tires. I'd like a 55-series tire but if I have to move to a 50-series, I will.

Well.

Here they are. Had them painted and cleared for $75/wheel. They are some silver flavor.

I think these work well with white. Tires are Bridgestones 255 55 18.
