New wheels/tires finally!

Powerman5K


Pretty pumped to finally get new tires mounted on my new wagon wheels today. Wheel caps are after market and the screws they came with are the wrong size. I'll have to find some that fit but that shouldn't be too tough. More pics when I get them on my truck later.

Yes, they look good.  But will look even better on the truck.

I always liked those white steel rims.  Nice.
