None that I know of. Maybe someone makes some alloy ones. You won't loose value. Thats Gay! Drive the fawking thing beat the hell out of it. Badger does. You could always get some rock rings. |

I'd rather destroy a set of none original rims then ones that are not being made anymore. I thought about alloy but those are more weight on the drivetrain. Maybe i should try to make my own rims......

i just don't like messing up parts that aren't made anymore but i guess that rock rings would fix my problem and make em just as valueble. How did you remove the chrome from them?

It's really hard to beat the look of the stock rims. Add some rock rings and enjoy beating the piss out of them. |
