The wheels look great!
Kudos to Jacob for an idea. :tu:
Now I've already designed a black wheel for mine.
Pics will follow and if anyone has a problem, sorry.

Terry, have you ever ordered the center caps for '01 stock wheels before? Other than from a dealer?

Mark,
I have an extra set since I painted another set white that are currently on my truck.

Aren't the caps the same for all years?

I agree. The black wheels are a nice contrast with the silver paint and red brake calipers. Not something you see very often. :tu:

No sir the dealer wants 35 bucks each last time I checked. I think the center caps are the same. I buy the wheels from Diversified products for 185 ea with caps. Maybe they sell caps alone?

Haha...thats funny, I hope you are kidding on that stupid @ss idea. Whats wrong? Need to borrow some money because you can't afford to paint the whole d@mn thing? This is the f***ing idiot, but I think you could easily take that title away from me if you did that "custom" job to your centercaps.

This is a friendly neighborhood Forum. We give each other a hard time but that is accepted cause we KNOW each other and we do it in JEST.

Please, PLEASE ease up on the posts or you will find it hard to read the forum from your 12-238-100-227.client.attbi.com IP address...

Thanks

Here is my patented thought. Buy those 03 wheels and paint the spokes minus the recessed centers leave those as a silver or polished stripe. That would be trick yo:tu:

no problem mr. PR man from tunersville raised on leaded fuel (kinda funny when it was phased out in 95)...i apologize, thanks for askin kindly...I tend to be mean when I hear stupid @ss ideas.

Your'e right, who cares about the wheels...who cares about anything as long as the motors fast! Sure man, lets race...Ill be lookin for the sh!tty lookin fast L.

Hello friendly neighboorhood mod thats in a pissy mood. It's funny how you wanna ban me but a few days back when people were talkin sh!t and giving me a hard time to kiss Terry's @ss...you didn't have a problem with that ole buddy o pal! O yea...good job at finding my IP adress sherlock! Maybe you could try to investigate my other 2 IP adresses I got on my other computers...and yes I know that usually all computers run off of same IP, you can have multiple IP adresses out of one house on each computer if you contact your provider. So I suggest you go and take some mydol and change your tampon. I'm like an itch you can't scratch...you all can try, but you'll never get rid of me.

O yea....terry, did you take that idea from someone or is it really patented? Maybe you could sell those as PR Motorsport 2 wheels...that would be cool man, gotta give the customers the newest and hottest stuff like the business man you are.

I don't drive a lightning A drive a Z06...and if there is such a thing as a sh!tty Z06 then it would be mine.

However all you would have to do is look for the Mellow Yellow your girl will be rollin with...at least if she likes winners (i.e. fast cars) :)

Um...yea, I'm looking around and I dont see the word corvette anywhere in the website's titles...maybe you were going too fast and got lost buddy. Texas Area Lightning Owners North, yea...I can see how you could get that confused with the word corvette or z06. Yea, your right, my girl does like a winner, thats why she rides with me...but not a fast car buddy, a fast truck..dont forget, this is the LIGHTNING website, and a lightning is a truck.

If I am not mistaken PR = Performance Research, and I sport the PR brand......

Without Terry's help my car would have never come together, and last time I checked I posted my comments in the PR section of the website.

You in no way have anything to do with these wheels etc. For the record I have had black PR wheels on my car for over a year. If I wanted something no one else had then I would have picked a color that was a little more exotic. Hell its like saying that you want to be the only one with an aftermarket lower pulley...get out of town! Hell, I like to think of it like the PR Motorsport isn't the wheel (its a lightning wheel).....the PR Motorsport is the paint scheme on the wheel! Hence why it was developed first on Corvettes and then adapted to lightnings for a fellow customer to decide whether or not he wanted them. God forbid.....but it could be a Camaro wheel with the PR Motorsport "scheme"....also available in different colors:) Known as PR Motorsport 1,2,3,4,5,6,etc you choose

BTW,
Back to the race..........how many "truck" lengths do you need for it to be considered a fair race? After the race if your girl isn't in my car it only means one thing.....she likes to ride with loser's:tongue:


P.S. Terry keep up the good work, and I love the "PR Motorsport Wheels"

Matt I don't think we have ever met. You have to be the worst example of a L owner I have seen post. The crap/smack you post is about par with a f-body or stang forum. You are balls deep in a bicker about wheels that doesn't concern you. If Jake has a beef then he needs to take up for himself. You are fighting more for him than Johnny Cochran for OJ Simpson. A whopping 7 possts on this forum and not one is positive or worth reading period. Just full of hate and small minded banter. Any of my customers can feel free to post in my forum whether they drive Vipers, Audi's, Porshe, H2's, Z06, C5 whatever I have worked on. If you pay attention I took the wheel add and renamed it giving Jake the props and no longer advertize them for sale. Heck that can't be that awesome nobody else wants a set:hammer:. I offered Jake my set and I would go back to silver but these aren't finished good enough for his liking. We are all wasting our time replying to your:vomit:

This wheel thing is getting out of hand. If you want to get technical, I had the idea of doing that to my wheels before anyone had done it well over a year ago. I was inspired by the old police Mustang rims that were done in black and thought it would look great on an L. About a week or two later someone on F150online had it done to theirs and it looked great. The picture posted up in the locked thread was the exact pictire of that guys rims on F150. So in my opinion there shouldn't be anything to be upset about. I think it is great that Terry is offering these rims for the people that want them. They are definately on my wish list. :tu:

Terry, I did some quick PhotoShop on the '03 rim pics. That would look great, but just to put my part of this "Black Wheel" deal to rest, I'd rather spend "New Wheel" money on Go Fast Stuff. Let's just plan on getting together the end of this month.

No worries. The only thing that'd scare me off was too much of the kind of stuff that was going on before.

I am going to play with the C5 but am not sure where to go first. I'm looking at suspension and brakes as the first step....it already goes fast enough to scare myself. :)

I am also considering the 5 point mount and harness for the drivers side. I won't drive like that with a passenger on board.

I'm open to ideas and mice suggestions.
