Rims for a truck.....

[lepper boy]

Anyone know of some good quality rims that will go on a toyota that won't rust? I live on the coast and my chrome rims are rusting like crazy......

Do you want spokes and hubs too, or are you planning on welding the new rims to the spokes and hubs of your old wheels?

On a more helpful note, try www.tirerack.com. They sell alloy wheels for almost everything, and alloys don't rust.

aren't alloys the ones that cost 2 arms and 3 legs?

I bet those were some high-quality chrome rims you bought...

Well, I don't know what kind of truck you have, but just playing around with a Ford Ranger as the vehicle to be configured, the prices range from $89 to $329 per wheel, with most being around $180 for 18" wheels, so it's not that bad. A set of 4 15" alloys for my project car runs about $550 for reproductions and past $600 for originals, and those are "only" 15" wheels.
