(2)Are the single one piece rims better? Not familiar with a 1 piece
Humvee rim. Would take a very special truck machine which almost no one
has.

> (3)Whats a good price for a set of four Hummer one piece steel rims? with
air inflate hoses.(hose come with the rims) You will be VERY hard
pressed to find rims with the hoses in the used market that will fit a
Humvee. By the way, the hose doesn't fit on the rim, it fits on the hub and
connects to the schrader valve on the rim.

Can they be installed

you will have to change your hubs also.

come with the "new style" hubs (drilled and tapped) to retrofit them with
the CTI system when needed.
