what about the ones that come on the SRT viper truck? Basicly the same thing as the viper wheels. Might be cheaper :gotme: ---

> [@jeeves744](#): > > what about the ones that come on the SRT viper truck? Basicly the same thing as the viper wheels. Might be cheaper :gotme: those r 22s…i CAN NOT fit those. the problem im having is the Vipes have 19s on the front and a bigger size on the back (the number escapes me right now). point is, i need 4 front rims (the 19s) because the bigger rear ones wont fit on my truck. ---

they’d look hot… but I think that the $$ would work well in the performance catagory as well… If this is going to take away from planned mod’s for the truck… dont do it… if rims was a planned mod this year then I’d say they’d look hawt. ---

1800 is a lot of change to spend on wheels. Just powdercoat your stock wheels black. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/EclipseBlur/blackcopy.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v289/EclipseBlur/blackcopy.jpg) 😃 ---

IMO Its not worth it…Your gonna invest in the rims…and whats gonna happen when you eat away performance tires once a season. ---

Sorry guys, 1.8K for those wheels is actually a SMOKING deal if they in good shape. Those wheels are over 1.8K EACH new. Its a niche market, 6-lug forged wheels that are that wide command a certain price, period. You could get more than 1.8K on TRADE IN for a set of those wheels, any day of the week. ---

thats a crapload of money to spend on rims dude, they would look amazing IMO, but find them cheaper. maybe sign up on a viper forum and grab some from the guys who upgrade, or check ebay ---

I bet you could get nice non-viper wheels and a good nitrous kit for the same price. Well, I have no idea how much nitrous kits run but for some reason I’m thinking $600 is about right. That leaves $1200 for the wheels. ---
