yukon rims on a 1996 tahoe.........pics

[dudeface]

got some 2012 yukon rims 17" ............mint shape with 60% tread for 300 bucks. one had a leak so I played up the "not to pleased that wasnt in the add" card and buddy went from 700 to ......what would you pay for them?
I told him 300 and he said take em away!! finally got a break!!
anyways was unsure they would fit my 96 tahoe 2 door, 17s were never an option then. they fit tight.............my trucks been lowered 2 inches as well.




This weekend I am going to paint the insets on these rims with duplicolors Blackout shadow kit..........already did 1 as a tester and it looks awesome. also got some black acorn lug nuts on the way to top it off. I will post pics of that process in a different album and thread tomorrow

peace

i think they also came on later model sierras as well. there are aftermarket places selling these exact rims for 200 a peice............te dealership wants a grand or so for 4 rims. they are a real nice lookin rim for factory. good luck and i am sure you will find a set eventually

Those rims look great and you got a steal of a deal.
What size tires are on those rims? Fills the wheel well quite nicely.
Love to see the the rims when you're done with painting the insets.

Good to see another 2 door.

I finally got my black lug nuts so tomorrow i will post pics of thre finished black painted insets and black lugs. It looks pretty awesome...........would really like to see a set painted some other color to match the body color.


peace out

peace out

so i finished painting my rims with duplicolors shadow blackout black chrome kit for wheels. very cool product and although i could have just painted the insets a gloss or semi gloss black paint............I decided to pay the 20 bucks for their wheel blackout kit mainly because the paint was intended for wheels






I also purchased some lug nuts off Ebay for 40 bucks shipped.............I tried to buy local but finding them in canada seems impossible unless you wanna pay 120 bucks and up!!?? they added the finishing touch to the whole look i was going for.





Living in canada..............gets pretty messy in the winter, I wanted rims that looked good, were 17 inch and easy to clean. As this is my daily driver I like to keep it clean but with another car for my cruiser I spend enough time keeping that one clean. So I wanted something something cheap and decent lookin and I think I found it with these factory yukon rims..............





















just for kicks I will post a picture of my other material obsession and the vehicle that gets most of the attention. had it for 10 plus years..............hardly drive it lately with all the bad weather but F$#k I love this car






1985 cutlass salon.............
