They look to be the real deal. Nice price, considering I've not found them for anything less than a grand. There feed back rating is pretty good too.

My understanding is that the bolt pattern for all the TB's is the same. I've heard of other TB owners non-SS putting the SS rims on there rides. The description does not mention anything about tires coming with the rims, I would send them a note to just make sure though. Other than that, If I had not just put 05 17' rims on my ride I would go for them. Also I would make sure that they come with the center caps.

They will fit your '05. They won't come with tires unless the ad says that. Better check on the center caps. I didn't see them in the picture.

That's not bad, I've seen them for just over a grand without tires and a little more with tires, but make sure that the come with or without the center caps.

If you get them, you'll need lug nuts also. See if they include them too. The lug nuts if you go OEM will cost you over $5.00 each. You'll need 24.

Use the ones on the vehicle right now. No need to waste money. Use the ones from the factory tires/rims.:D

:no: oh no, the factory lug nuts are open top, the bolt will show and it will look horrible. Get the McGard kit, around $50 for lugs and locks

if he plays it safe he'll only need 20, and 4 locking nuts..maybe sure that theyre lug centric

I had to buy a new wheel for a story that will be told at a later date. Dealer price was $489 I think, I paid $349.00 dealer cost, my buddy works there. With tires that retail at Discount for about $180 each, I thnk you are doing just fine...:yes:

GrayFox make sure you go through EBay Paypal, not outside through this party, alot of fraud, even through the feedback is good, I worked alot of cases from Ebay inwhich peoplke are ripped off

SS wheels do not have centercaps that go over the lugs like the 16s and 17s that come on regular trailvoys do.. they just cover the hub

All GMT-360 and its variants use the same bolt pattern (6x5), so SS wheels will work on an non-SS and non-SS wheels will fit an SS (16" rims excluded, they dont clear the brake calipers).
