I don't like them. It's a Hummer not an Escalade.

Just my 2 cents. I like 20" to 22" chrome wheels, but this wheel is too busy looking. Looks like a pain to keep clean. Probably one of the least attractive wheels I have seen on this website.

They would look good with spinners

Just kidding man, I would agree though on something not so busy. Did you look at american racing they have some H3 specific rims. They also tend to run alot less than the bling bling brands. I have ran and abused them on my Sub for 10 years now and they have been fine. I just can't bring myself to spend 1600+ on rims, when i know my wife would borrow it and then do a gutter ride

Goto http://www.wheelsnext.com and look at the SUV specials. You will get 4 20" wheels with tires shipped for free for under $1700.00. This is where you want to go. I was at a Hummer dealer last week and the had the symbolics on an H3 for $3990 (the feak'n wheels and tires are under $1500 on this site).

I'm not into bling, but I think I actually like those wheels.

I think they'd go pretty well with the other chrome on your truck.

Good luck.

I know where Lufkin is, spend time working up there occasionally.

My Hummer dealer is having an outing next weekend in Alto (offroad park?), but I'm not going to make it. We have to go to my wife's grandmothers 90th birthday in Fort Worth. Unless she doesn't make it that long. (kidding)

I'll let you know next time I'm coming that way, probably not too many Superior Blue H3's up that way.

yeah at Shaloridge (the only park in Alto, if you hever never been there than it is alot of fun it is around 2k sq ac. it is huge just have to watch out for all the fourwheelers. But you have around 15 or so mudpits and then you can either go trailing, or go mudding or just go ride around in all the beautiful feilds. The good thing about there is that there is almost 2 ways to get around everything so if you don't want to do something you can go around it. It is alot of fun out there But I wouldnt take my Hummer Call me a weener

Now that I have seen the pictures of those rims actually mounted I have to say they are pretty nice looking rims. Additionally with all those flat surfaces they really don't look like they would be too much trouble to keep clean. Are the ones on the Silverado 18's?.

Klint, I think a set of these will make your red H3 scream!

IMO - I wouldn't go with anything above an 18" wheel. You'll have upsprung weight issues that will affect braking and besides, it's a Hummer, you'll want beefy tires.

Another way to go might be to get a set of stock chrome rims off Ebay. Then, install wide 33" All Terrains like BG Goodrich or Nitto Terra Grapplers in a 295/75-16. That way, you get nice flashy rims coupled with beefy tires.

If I had it over again, I would have taken that route. Can't go back now since I spent all that money though...

Here's a link that gives perspective on how and why I went from these 35's to 33's.
