Talking Finally got my Centerlines and Nittos

I finally got my Centerlines and Nittos. I went a little different route from several others here. I went with the Centerline Champ XL (Style 203) instead of the Stingray III (Style 201). The only difference is that the 203 has round holes instead of the 201's rounded triangular holes. I prefer the round hole look over spoke look.

I got the 17x8. It has 5" backspacing and weighs only 20 lbs. The Centerline part number is 203_7806_656. The tire is the Nitto Terra Grappler in 295/70R17. Fit, ride, look, etc. is great.

I got them from a local Discount Tire. Cost was $1778 + tax. This includes lifetime road hazard replacement, flat repairs and balancing on them, plus all new lug nuts (required) and locks.

A side note is that the tire pressure sensors did not fit without leaking slightly. The hole cut on the new wheels was just slightly different than the factory. We tried it twice but could not get it leak free, so no more pressure sensors for me.

Oh, and I pulled off my factory side step rails. They just did not seem to go with the wheels. Plus it makes the truck look higher without them.
