holy crap, you got a steal then, do you have any idea how much those wheels run brand new?...ill give you a hint, more than alot of people spend on their daily driver, or even a KB, or whipple! I was asking because i looked at a local guys truck a while back and he had those wheels, but ended up selling them separate from the truck! I love the HRE's by far one of my favorites for these trucks! You buy if from a guy in The Colony?

CICHlids, i may have asked this alaready, but you care to share with us what hood you have on your truck. It looks like the same one Stan has, even then i dont know what its called, i just know its badass!

Hey SVTbeatdown, what wheels do you have on your truck? They look pretty sweet and I love the stance your truck has!

Ya I know... That's the main reason I wanted the truck in the first place. I've had a couple cars in the family with HRE's but I've always had a thing for Lightnings. The wheels are too much brand new IMO. I'll let someone else take the hit on depreciation or I'll just get lucky and buy something that has them already. LOL.

And no I bought it from a buddy who lives in Lewisville not TC...

Thanks man. They are Centerline Matrix 5's. If you hate to polish wheels to keep them looking good, like say an hours worth or 2, stay away. lol

Per day? Per week? Per month? I don't mind spending time to make my truck look good, but if it's 1-2 hours a day or week, I may have to pass lol

Well its in a storage unit now so maybe once a month, but once she comes out because she'll be outside all time so once a week for me.

Every red Lightning should have a harley grille, IMO.

Something about it looks absolutely amazing.

when i started looking for a L, red was the ONLY color i wouldnt own, but now they are growing on me. With a nice set of wheels they are effin HOT!! It just sux, cause the money i put back for a blower swap will be going towards wheels so i dont get tired of the truck within the first week. Eh, i guess i could always grab a pulley and valve body with the wheels to hold me over for another month or so till i can get the blower.

VERY nice.... classy lookin truck man! I can't wait to get mine back together so I can get some pics up! Red wasn't really my first choice either, I wanted anything but silver cause I already had an 01 silver... Even though I love white and sonic blue, the red has really become my fav, especially with black wheels... nice trucks everybody! :rockon:
