Well I finally got my aluminum rims in, had them send them over to Ziegler Tire in Garfield Hts. Ohio (I mention them because they are a awesome company)

Drove the truck up there this morning, Ziegler put 4 guys on my truck to change out the tires and put them all back on. Had it done in about 45 minutes, but when they put them on the studs where toooo shooort!!!! Aluminum rims are much thicker than steel rims. So they put my old rims & tires back on so I could drive up the road about 5 miles to the frieghtliner dealer and have the studs changed out. Unfortunetly, they did not have the studs, so it looks like it will be tomorrow before it is complete.

Soooooo lesson 4,004,687,043 make sure you have the proper studs before you install those new aluminum rims.
