Are the LT's 4 lug? For some reason I thought they were 5...or is that only the SS models?

Otherwise, those are some nice looking wheels.

Kudos to you for wanting lightweight 16inch racing wheels and not LED spinners in 20inch. Get em, they will look good.

They look like knockoffs of the Rota Slipstream...look for wheels made in Japan, Germany, or the United States. Taiwan and China suck.

I like the rims a lot, but I don't like the center caps. Those would look hot with some chevy center caps on them! Nice choice.
