Velociti 8's or Eagle 114's

No right answer here, just get rid of the stock pizza cutters!

Yeah I like the weld's too but the boyd coddington hot rod 8's are pretty cool also. Not sure if they still make them though.....and yes the eagle 114's look great but check out the eagle 133's too.

Hot Rod 8's have been discontinued.. I am looking for 20/22 inch wheels and the eagles dont come in 22's.. The problem I have found most of the time is the offset.. There are a lot of 8 lugs out there but most dont have the correct offset since the 4wd usually want them sticking out for clearance..

I have the Backspacing on lock for our trucks, what width wheels to you want to go with? these are 2 of my favorites.....
Note: I didn't want mine to tuck so I went with a 10" wide wheel all the way around: different BS of course;



note how they are dead even with the fender flares:



if you want them to tuck you will need an 8.5" width wheel in the front, the 10" in the rear will still work.

Intro Wheels can help you out bigtime, you wont find an off the shelf wheel combo that will have the correct BS to fit and be an even track width.

this was my second choice
