You're welcome, I haven't seen a set of them for quite a while. I think the whole polished wheel look as kind of took a back seat to the black wheels in the last five years. I don't see as many polished aftermarket wheels around any more.

I'm sure they will fit.

I must be getting old, I rarely see new wheels that look good to me.

Don't feel like the lone ranger.................... 99 percent of the wheels they make today I wouldn't put on a FORD.

You know im the same way. Heck if I ever came across a nice set of stock caps and rings, I'd go back to the factory wheels!

Yeah it's surprising the cost of old stock OE steel rims. My 2nd Gen rims I got for my winter tires I managed to get for $50 each.....but the guy at the JY started at over hundred each.

I agree. I wanted a set of old school white spoke 16" x 10" for my '74 Crew Cab and couldn't find decent ones. I almost bought a set of Stockton Wheels 20 Series 16"x10". I still might if I round up some extra cash.
