Well I got my new rims on yesterday, Eagle Alloy 211 17x8. They look Identical to the American Racing Torque Thrust 2 rim but at a lower price. I know I need a bigger tire but these were damn near free so this is what I had to get for right now. Sorry the pictures kinda suck but it was super cloudy when I took these, I'll get some better ones on the next sunny day. Anyways let me know what you think.

I think a hard tanue (sp) cover painted to match the truck would really set it off! and a rear roll pan!

I love the wheels, just like the old crager ss's makes your truck look awesome

I just ordered my clear corners off ebay so that should help it out some too. I wouldn't mind having a hard tonneau but I can't afford one right now and there are other things that I want more such as a rollpan and maybe going down another inch or two.

good choice on rims. yeah a roll pan would clean her up real nice. then you can do other stuff, but do roll pan next if possible.

Thanks for the compliments, I would have went with 18's but they don't have them in this rim they go from 17 to 20 and I don't like 20's on s10's. I am a member of s10forum, it's a great site with so much information it's unbelievable.

I love those trucks, Im destined to own one, one day. As for now Im stuck with an s10 with a V8 conversion, it does the trick.
But it's more of a sleeper compared to the SRT-10
:eek:

I love the way the s-10's look when slightly lowered and sitting on cool wheels like the truck first pictured. Adding a v-8 just helps add to the smile factor :D

I like your choice in wheels man, that style always looks good on S-Series trucks. I miss being an S-10 owner. Switching from an extended cab, stepside, automatic, 4.3L to a 96 regular cab ranger 2.3 manual was quite a bummer. But its cool because I don't have a payment anymore.

S10Forum is a great site, just dont argue with any of the directors because you will be publically humiliated and/or banned. Has a lot of great information, though. Its a night and day difference between S10F and RPS, just like the trucks.

Enjoy that truck dude, because if and when you get a different vehicle, you will miss it. And just for memories... :D
