    Got two good deals on both of these wheels, they are the M/t classic lock or the Eagle 187 looks the same both are polished. Anyone have experience with either one, the M/T's are more money.

    ive had both polished and chrome,try to go with the chrome,in the long run they are just way easier to take care of,usually cost more but after a year of taking care of the polished you will be fed up

    Go with the American Eagle chromed. I've got the polished ones and brake dust makes them dull really bad. Now i have to polish them by hand or a polisher to see if i can get some life back into them.
    What kind of tires are you going to run?

    Years back MT's were made by Alcoa which were a lot stronger than anything American had to offer. Not sure if that relationship still exists FYI, most Big Trucks run Alcoas.

    I've got Alcoa's, fresh polish in my view look's better than chrome but
    they are a bitch.

    i have classic locks on my HD and i love them. if you have a buffing attachment for a drill driver it will help them shin up real nice
