- High luster polished finish
- One-piece aluminum
- Lifetime structural warranty
- Center Caps sold separately
I waited and watched and when the price hit this amount I ordered four of them ( hey FREE SHIPPING ) for my all Black 2000 Nissan Xterra 2x4.
I swapped my stock rubber over to these rims no problem. 265x70x15.
Now it say center cap not included and I was about to order some; but I had a heck of a time getting the center hole size figured out. 108mm or about 4.25 inches.
I waited for the rims to arrive first wow did they arrive fast; boom on my door in about three days.
Opened the boxes and guess what I found? CENTER CAPS... yea all right - those buggers add about 20.00 each to the price if you have to buy them...
Threw them in the back and off to the tire place..
They pulled the stock rims and tires swapped and balanced them then the bit brain finds out after ALL THAT WORK my stock lug nuts won't work. THEY ARE TOO SHORT and the air wrench can't spin them all the way down.
So off and running literally looking for lug nut in the 12x1.25 size longer than the stock ones.
I found an after market tire store and at 6:00 PM they were about to leave; but I guess with that for Lorn Puss-in Boots look at the glass door and scratching and whining I was making they relented and let me in. I had to buy 24 new lug nuts acorn style and special socket for an additional $100.00.
Here is the type Gorilla Automotive 21123HT Small Diameter Acorn Chrome 5 Lug Kit (12mm x 1.25 Thread Size) - Pack Of 20 YOU NEED 24 if you have a vehicle like my Xterra; 6 lugs per tire.
Literally ran back to the tire store ( A Friday what else ) and made a pit stop for a 12 pack of beer for them. Hey they worked hard and fixed by brake light switch for free.
Got back in about twenty minutes; they were really surprised ( hey I don't smoke and chase the old lady all the time ).... Got the lug nuts installed and trucking down the road.
I'll post a picture of how they look.
