I just put a set of Eagle Alloy series 194, 16"x8" wheels on my 2500HD with Goodyear Wrangler AT/S, 265x75xR16E tires. I like the wheels and they look great on the truck. I'd like to know if anyone else running these or similar wheels has had any problems with rust on the chrome caps or lug nuts. We see a lot of salt on the roads during the winter and I was wondering what to expect out of these items.

I went to the American Eagle wheel site to see which ones you're talking about. Then, Doh! Those are the ones I have on my truck!

The center caps I got with mine are a large aluminum domed cap, looks a lot more like the Weld Wheels cap. So far they haven't required any polishing, and since the lugs are under the cap, they're protected as well. I am hearing a slight ticking coming from the left rear. Dealer syas he'll look into it, but says most of the time it's a loose center cap.
