Looking to buy some alloy wheels and found some good prices on take offs will a set from a newer 3/4ton fit my 98 3/4ton?

Thanks in advance.

Yes they will I have them on my 99 looks good with 265/75/16 or 285/75/16... you also have to get the center caps the ones off of your 98 will not fit..

Later

Kev-o Hey Kev-o,

Got any pictures or links to these rims? I've been thinking when my tires wear out in another 20K-30K that I would replace the stock steel rims. I was thinking H2 rims but if there are other options at a better price I'm all about that! Besides, the H2 caps won

those rims look great on there! the rims and tires i was looking at were at a local tire shop,
with so many people buying new trucks and lifting the S^$# out of them and blinging it up with 20+" Rims there are good deals to be had. Found three sets in local classifieds. (9 second grand national sounds like FUN!)

Kev-o Thanks a lot for the info! I'll have to look for some adds. 9 seconds is fun but it'll go 8's next year. I changed classes for next year to run in the outlaw class and I need to go about a second faster to compete. Should be fun until something breaks.... and it always does!

Does anyone know if all the takes-off

The rims in the picture are aluminum, factory takeoffs.

Subsequently, they are 22 lbs lighter EACH than the stock steel rims.

88 Lbs of rotating mass. Good bit.

I like the buff look a little more than the polished. The H2 are buff, wondering if all the 2500 P/U rims are polished or if there was also a buff aluminum rim option.

Thanks again for the info!
