I'm leaning toward these. I'll bet they look sweet with the stainless fenders and black boat/trailer.

If I went with those I'd have to start looking for a new truck too. Ouch!

No. They are not the spinners. PLEASE do not get spinners. If so we need to admit you into a mental ward. Spinners are so GHETTO!!!! and I do mean GHETTO

Sandm, those spinners are excellent! Even got the West Coast Chopper thing going.

I'd seriously put them on my trailer.

I struggled thinking they would take away from my tow rig, but I think I did ok...

Spinner Hub Caps, you got to be kidding. You might as well get a BBQ mounted to your tower, disco ball hanging from your mirror, and a green tree air freshner hanging from the key in your ignition.

Ok, well I couldn't help myself. I got a set for the trailer.
Spinner hubcaps that is. It should look pretty hot. Now all I need is a set of dingle balls to hang from the windshield. Anyone know where I can get a set in Fossil?

Kidding... picked a set up from http://www.trailer-wheels.com/ .
I've been wanting a set for a while now. I'll get pics posted when I get them.

PLEASE clarify ASAP! Did you order a set of hubcaps or dingle balls?!?!?

The first we may want to see pics of, the other, probably not! :p

Dingle balls... Not dingle berries!

example of Dingle balls.. The other... well I think you all have a creative enough imagination.

Oh and maybe I'll get a chain steering wheel too!

Newty,
A chain stering wheel. Just take your boat trainer to Los Angeles so that they can lower the trailer and placing hydrolic pumps on the Axle so that you can hop down the street. I sorry about being so sarcastic about this. I lived in Southern Calif for 27 years and saw that crap everyday. I can not stand that look. I call it the Pep Boys Customs

Seriously I would never put a chain steering wheel on my boat. Or dingle balls, or spinner hub caps.
You guys should know better than that. Maybe I have a "odd" sense of humor.:D
I'm all about quite and classy, not loud and flashy.

you guys just don't have good taste.
spinners, chain wheel, dingle balls.. all good ideas to offset a plain tower.
personally, I'm saving my spare change in hopes of getting a sweet crushed velour and diamond tuck interior in bright red, then cover with matching custom plastic sofacovers to protect it from water. after that, it's a pair of gold pumps run off 8 batteries and hydraulic rams to all the opening hatches and the fold-down tower. should really help ballast..

mastercraft has taken the first step in this direction with the super-bright metallic flake paint option, I'm just ready to take it up a notch :)

HAHAHAHAHAHA You guys are Killing me I love it. Diamond Tuck Upholstery. Now why didn't I think of that.

Newty-- I know you are joking.

Ed-If you go to San Pedro to get your hydraulics on your boat trailer, then I have a set of old school Dayton rims for you.

I have a few Ideas for you guys

I spoke with a rep from trailer-wheels.com. They seem to really know thier stuff and were very helpful.
I have 4 of the above posted wheels on the way.
BTW they are located in Socal so you get a free set of dingle balls with every puchase. And I get 25% off any puchase of a chain steering wheel on my next order.:p

a pair of gold pumps run off 8 batteries

I think I paid to see a woman wearing those pumps one time many years ago.

Man, with the amount of money someone put into that turd on a trailer, they could have had a fairly nice ski boat.
