Uncle Tom,

Are those ZQ8 rims factory GM rims? If so did they come with the center cap and all of the lugs nuts for them? Post some pictures. Thanks

Did it come with the chrome chevy center caps? Or did the come with the GMC center caps? If not can you order them with the chrome center caps? Glad you was happy with your purchase. The have the same thing at Summit for $549.88. Thats a savings of $70.00.

Summit has a $10.95 handling fee, and free shipping under 150lbs, which the ZQ8s are easily under that weight.

Summit woulda been $60 cheaper then fleabay, in the end.

Nitto 450s, I had them on a set of the same wheels and got 40k miles out of them. Made in North Georgia and drove great. P245/50R16s.

I also got my ZQ8 wheels and a set of 1996 Impala SS wheels from the same seller on ebay, great to deal with.
