Anyone have these wheels? Thoughts?

Good looking. Seems like cleaning would be a real pain.

At first fleeting glance, I think they look good. But, after studying them for about 10 seconds, I see good and "meh" qualities. As Keith said, cleaning would be a pain. As far as looks, I'm seeing an identity crisis. The mesh spoke design is very Buick, maybe 80s Firebird style but it's mixed with the offroad deep lip with beadlock design. Each a great design in it's own right, but they clash when put together.

I really want these but they are forged and extremely expensive.

My thoughts exactly.

^^^ Now those I dig. They found a style and stuck to it.

Nope. I'd keep shopping!

Though significantly more expensive than cast wheels (especially the china cast, and most replica variants), that's actually not a terrible price for forged wheels assuming you're looking at 20" diameter?

A lot of benefits to going with a forged wheel vs. a cast wheel.

I very much like the forged American Racing wheels and am well aware of the benifet of a forged wheel over cast. Just not sure if those benifets are worth the extra coin for me personally. I'm going to test fit the Vision wheels this week and see how they look. I also agree with previous comment. I wish they would have left off the beadlock/rivets and I wish the lip wasn't so pronounced. I'm told the lip is much thinner than the photo shows for 20" wheel, but I'll have to see it on the truck to know if I'll like it. I really love this "basket weave" style of wheel. Kind of going for a more American Muscle look to match the theme of my truck. Just tired of seeing SUVs and trucks with the same generic flat/gloss black aftermarket wheels. The whole murdered out look is getting old to me. Obviously to each their own. All opinions and comments very much appreciated fellas.

As far as keeping the wheels clean, I detail my truck every weekend. It's a hobby for me. Whatever I choose to go with will be regularly cleaned/waxed. I intend to keep the stock 20s and run them in the winter. The new wheels/tires will be my spring/summer setup.

Alright guys, found another set I think looks pretty good. Opinions?

I like them. Kind of look like the declads. @iamdub @05Single

[Tk59194]

Opinions are much appreciated. Think I'm gonna go with those.

You said you were going for an "American Muscle" look, and those definitely fit that better. The other ones are more of a muscle car design (80s, though) and the 6-spokes are more muscle truck.

They really do look like GMC de-clads that have been polished or chromed. I wish de-clads had that wide and flat lip, though.

 

[Tk59194]

Again, thank you for all the feedback fellas. Gonna pull the trigger on the six spoke "declad" looking wheels. I think it is a very classy and timeless design.

 

[Tk59194]

Well, back to square 1.....discontinued.

Typical. I have the same luck.

Get some de-clads and have them chromed, polished or powdercoated in "polished aluminum". You'd still come out ahead, cost-wise.

Where do I find these declads?

Boom goes the dynamite?

eBay and search “American Racing AR926”. Quite a few options come up actually.
