Let's see your 8 lug wheels

Thinking about buying wheels for our 3/4 ton suburban (2007 white), would like to see pictures of your 8 lug wheels on your tow vehicle and how they look with your boat hooked up.

No pics with the boat yet, but hopefully I will have the 5-spoke version in a 17" on the trailer this winter. These are a made by RBP and are a 20x10 8lug. I'm at work now, I may have a closer pic at home...

*20x10 Eagles and 33x12.50 Toyo's on the crew cab 06 2500HD Duramax
*18x10 Diamo's and 37x13.50 Toyo's on the white x-cab 2500HD
*20x12 Weld Cheyenne 8's and 38x15.50 Toyo's on the F-250
*22x12 Ion Forged Terminators and 35x12.5 Toyo's on the silver crew cab 1500 (I know you wanted 2500's, but you get this one anyway)

here are mine

American Racing Mojave's with 285/75-16 E Good Year Wranglers . I know old school, but I like the big sidewall look, plus I like the added security and performance of tall sidewalls for off road.

Love the Teflon finish, super easy to keep clean!

A close up of the above wheel...
Best wheels I've ever owned, and I've owned a lot.
Will never get raw polished aluminum again.
I got these in '04 just before the black wheel craze took off, and I would get the strangest looks from people thinking I had four spare wheels/tires on my truck hahaha

My favorite - Dub Big Homie 8. If you have 4wd (as I do), they have a different center cap which I didn't like so I never bought them. 4wd version is called Big Homie 8 HD.

18in Boyd Coddingtons

Ryan sick truck. John I don't know what you do for a living, but can you adopt me and my family. Those trucks are sick.

I went with 22's since I saw alot of 20's. Plus, my truck is 2WD so I didn't want look like a 4WD when it's not. My truck was leveled by lowering the rear 2" instead of lifting the front 2" like most Dodges.

dhcomp,very nice! had that same white Sub. '91 4x4 put 220,000 miles on it, sold it to my neighbor in '01, still runnin' strong. Told him
I want first right of refusal when he wants to sell. What a great truck! Last of the leaf spring front end GM's

Twitch, nice set up. The tire to wheel ratio looks good on that truck. 18's on a 3/4 ton 4x4 are as big as I would go.
Any bigger wheel, and the proportion of wheel to tire just looks wrong (to me) for a 4x4 that is to be used what it was meant for.

BTW, what size tires are those?

^^^^Thats why I got 20's with 40" rubber! haha. There's enough sidewall there for the bumps!

Here's a pic of the wheels I have.

06 Chevy Duramax 20 x 12 Weld Cheyenne

Thanks chris! Ive got 223k on mine, had it for 2+ yrs now. Its getting kept for a long time!

Not only the last year of the Solid front, and that body style, but the ONLY year 3/4 ton burb of that era to get Overdrive....so back when it had stock tires on it, i could get 17+ mpg on the freeway with it. No so much anymore though...

nice. A lot of nice looking tow rigs in this thread.

Lots of great looking tow rigs and boats! I am thinking about an 18" black spoked wheel with chrome or aluminum outer wheel. Even though the picture is small I like the look of goboating's excursion wheel, just don't wanna go bigger than 18". Is it hard to find tires in 18" size?

Wheels I had on my old truck.

1st pic are 18x10 MB motoring (Gunnuer)

2nd pic are 18x9 KMC

3rd pic are 18x9 XD (diesel)

Just picked this up this weekend
Not 8 lug, but I love my truck!

I can't get a larger pic uploaded. Is there a trick to doing to? It says 150kb max which isn't too big.

Joe, thats a bitchen truck.. I love the stance!

Chris, those were 35's I think. Right now we have Mickey T's on I personally like em better

This is the wheel I am considering in 18". Please let me know what you think.....

Thanks Isaac! Thats pretty much what sold me on it that and the wheels, and the fact that its loaded

mine..

17x9 with 37/12.5 x 17

Fiberwerx glass front fenders, adj. air ride in the rear,

Aaron,
What size terra grapplers do you have on that truck and how do you like them?

XD Diesel 20x10 35"

Let me try this again. These are what I am looking at, obviously in the 8 lug version.

They are 305-55-20 Nitto on the Dodge

The Chevy was 325-60-18 Nitto

I really like them they ride smooth and very little noise.

That wheel looks good. I'm not big on the center cap though.

I believe that center cap is for the 6 lug version and the 8 lug version is the same bigger center cap as most other 8 lug wheels.

not sure if it 8 lug or not but here is my bro wheels 22 inch KMC rockstars

and i had to put this in too lol this is his whats on the trailer hooked to the truck. His motto is go big or go home. i tell him every day it looks STUPID lol

So you put down other's stuff/hobbies yet it looks as if you don't have anything of your own. WOW you are so cool. Do yourself a favor and educate yourself as to what a 3/4 truck is. By the way function always wins over fashion, you strike me as they type that thinks the other way around.

reallY?? Bash me for telling my opinion on my brothers truck? Thanks bro, i guess that makes you look cool?

Craig appears to be a huge douche. Dont worry chase.

That was outta left field... Chill out craig. I dont see anything wrong with posting his bros stuff. Nice truck though!
