ProComp Series 152 & 51 V's Standard GU Steel rims

Post by drew4130 »

Hey all I want to run 6 wheels, 4 on the car and spares! At the moment have 4 GU steel rims and a split rim spare and thinking off changing them all over for "Pro Comp Series 152 or 51's". What I want to know is are they stronger or not as strong as GU steel rims???

Thanks

If your talking about the factory GU 16x8 steels, they are notorious for cracking in the spoke area of the rim .. If your going to use them hard, I would definately be using aftermarket rims.

yep standard GU steel 16X8 off a 2001 ST cab chassis.......so the Pro comp rims will be stronger and a better option??
