Chevy & GMC Vans

I bought and installed these wheels on my 2000 AWD Safari, from Summit Racing. I was surprised that the shipping and handling, to NM, came to only $12.95 US. Four wheels, caps, shipping and handling came to about $279. I did have to wait about 2 weeks, backorder, for them to be delivered but all in all I am happy with these wheels.

The wheels made a big difference in the look of the vehicle, no more soccer mom mini van look. These are not fancy high dollar wheels however, for my tastes and budget they fit well with the overall look of the van. The tires are 215/75/15. The tires will be replaced with 235/70/15 in the near future.

The only problem I foresee after installing them and washing the van was that some water puddled between the chrome and the black part of the wheel. Since I live in the desert southwest this will not be a problem for me. It could however become a problem where moisture is more prevalent and lead to early rusting.

Picture of the wheels on the van is in the intro discussion forum (hello from NM) and shows the stock and these wheels so you can compare.

Hope that helps someone......

got any pics of said wheels to post?

I refrained from commenting because I hadn't seen the wheels. (I'm too lazy to dig out posts, so luckily it popped up!) I do like that style as a budget wheel. I'm not a fan of all black wheels, but with the chrome outer rim, those look nice. I agree about your concern with them holding in a bit of water. I've seen a bunch of that style of rim with that area rusted. In fact, WAY back, I owned that style with a gold center and I had rust problems where the inner and out parts came together.
