Okay, I know someone just asked this but my retard ass cant find the thread. I need to know some places that sell black steel wheels (new) I know of Gulf Coast Rovers but want some others to compare prices and styles. Thanks, Carter |

nathan crabtree sells NATO's and so does Rovers North. i think nathan has them for $90/piece. don't go comparing these to the American Racing wheel though. they don't. |

AR wheels that GCR sells are nice. I have a set of them and I like them. They do have a different offset to them though so your tires will stick out a little more then normally. If you are running larger tires this could cause you to have to trim more. |

AB has steelies too. You might also try Tirerack.com these days, call them though, they won't be on the website. Some decent info here too: D-90.com wheels info |

Eric, I have a set also, and You have summed you my feelings. Do you have 16" rims or 15"? I have 15" and it looks like they need that offset to clear the Brakes and i was wondering it the 16" had the same offset? |

I have the 16x7 and they are offset but, about 1/4 to 1/2 an inch more then the 15x7s are and the same as the 15x8s if I'm looking at them correctly. |

that's a good price on NATO's. damn i paid alot more than that. i hate when i see stuff like that. haha. get them man......they are heavy bastards, so if you live anywhere near them try and pick them up. make sure to mount your white letters out though. just trust me on this. but if you want to see mine mounted check out my profile or there should be some pics from Uhwarrie on the events page. |
