When I bought the truck it had 15" TTII's which I sold pretty quickly (needed the cash for other work on the Blazer, and those wheels just weren't my style).

I replaced the 15" TTII's with 15x8 rallies painted black. I really like the way it sit on the rallies, so I will keep these, paint them gray, and get some 3" trim rings for them. For long trips and such, I'll put these back on. But then again, maybe not...

After 3 years of saving money, comparing styles, and considering options I decided I wanted a wheel that had a classic look but at the same time was a modern wheel. For sure I wanted 20's with a smooth lip (deep dish/reversed). I spent hours researching and measuring for the sizes I needed.

I narrowed it down to three different choices for 20s: "Legacy" by Billet Specialities (which did not come reversed), "TTII's (which so many people already have), or "Huntington's" by Bonspeed. Of course I decided to go with the Huntington's.

I plan on changing out the cowl induction hood once I can get the replacement I have color matched. This will happen when I take in the top to get painted.

I also plan on adding to the gray pinstriping already on the truck. Hopefully this will be soon, before summer 2008.

I'm really happy with the look of the Huntington wheels. To me they look like old style "hotwheel" wheels.

Once it was bagged, you can see that I'm pretty close to being done with it. I'm getting it to the point I had always envisioned. Of course you are never really done with these trucks, so we'll see how long it takes me to take more steps forward. The biggest obstacle is money.
