Teflon Wheels

[FLINTaVa]

I got my new wheels Monday, I wanted 285s but they were too tight so I went with 265/75/16s. Tire store guy said "A-Team in the 21st century"

I dig'em. Now if you could mount a 50 cal. .........................................

Looks good man!

I wonder how my LPM would look with them, since I have an 03 with the darker cladding they may match almost perfectly... Hmmm...

 

[Yoshi5674]

I was looking at 20"- 22" black wheels for my 02 Z66. I like the look of these black/teflon wheels with the cladding. The darker cladding will look even better.

I forgot about lug nuts, they are about the only chrome on my truck.

What's the cost on those, may I ask? Been looking around for something similar.

I saw them online for $200 to $225 + shipping I think. I paid over $800 but went thru a local store and bought tires too.

Hey, those wheels look great! Definitely a heavy duty look.

FYI- MY Av is supposed to come in tomorrow, and I have my Goodyear MT/R's (285/70R17) patiently sitting in my garage waiting. I guess the advantage of the WBH is I don't have to trim any cladding to fit these.

Anyway, thanks again for helping me score the deal I did. I'll shoot you some pics when I get it done.

I saw them online for $208 to $225 + shipping I think. I paid a bit more, I wanted to see them at the store in perfect condition before signing the check.

Thanks, Flint

www.wheelsforless.com has the Mojave and the Victors for $199.00 w/Valve stems, center caps and lugnuts! If you go to a Discount Tire they will match that price or beat it...

I like the Victor Teflons, I will have to take a trip to my buddys shop and see them in person...

Those are different, but I like it. Unquestionably urban assault

 

[bekind]

I have always found these nice looking, but dont know anything about them other than they are Enkei. Anyone have experience with them?

I love them. They would look great on a lifted AV also

Thanks Loggie, different was the reason I ordered my AV in April '01, I know some people still don't like the cladding and I'll get more of the same about my wheels. It's a truck, what's more appropriate than wash and wear wheels ?

Update: Not quite 12,000 on my AV with Firestone Wilderness AT 265/70/16, not much difference in ride or noise with new wheels and 265/75/16 Goodrich All Terrain but it does feel better. Maybe it's psychological

I did something stupid and got away with it. I helped install my new wheels and was going to put locking lugnuts on but put it off. I decided to trade up to Z71 and it hit me when I put the stocks back on yesterday. My lugwrench doesn't fit in the hole in the rim, I never put a narrow socket and breaker bar in my jack-kit. Good thing I didn't get a flat going to Niagara Falls I'll have OnStar on the new one but I wouldn't want to call them for a flat unless changing it was dangerous. (or I just had my hair done) J/K

It will look good with your new fenders.....

Don't forget you can paint to match the chop sticks too....

Very nice. Industrial look.

The pic is my Av with pics of the wheels to give me what they would look like on my AV before I purchased them. The Victors are actually pictures that were overlayed on my current wheels in the picture.

 

[otisboy]

Yup, those are nice. Make's you AV look more like a military vehicle.

I really like that look! The Av is just screaming to be decked out as a military vehicle.

I really liked it too, same mods look great on Arrival Blue but it projects a different attitude.
