I have always love 20's, my 06, 11, 14, and now my 16 have 20's, when I order my 16 they ask me do I want 18's or 20's and I told him 20's but that's me.

I like 18s on 35s better. Gives it a nice meaty look without having too small of a wheel.
I did have clearance with my lift kit running 18s, the tie rods were in the way so I had to get wheel spacers.

I think I have found a wheel/tire combo that I can live with. I kinda like the 2 Crave Extreme NX-5 in 20" chrome with Nitto Terra Grappler G2s. Check them out and give your honest opinions. I'm not even considering anything but chrome or pvd wheels and like a clean, simple, not too flashy look. If you have other wheel suggestions I'll be happy to check them out and may be convinced to get them instead.

Sorry but I can't say I like the *** choice and since u only "kinda like" them I don't feel bad. I just got the same tires and don't have any complaints about them. Big decision on shoes, you have to "really" like them in my OP

I appreciate your opinions even if you don't like the wheels. If there are nicer ones out there in your opinion then how about some suggestions.

Check out custom wheel offsets online. You can look up rams with 4 inch lifts. Lots of pics. Can get ideas of what looks good.

Dude...if you like those, get'em. That type of wheel is what your interested in obviously. I don't particularly like them either but your the one who has to look at'em everyday.

I wouldn't get some wheels just because others like'em :favorites13:

Hey Bryan, I'm running the Rockstar 2's & love them, but the black isn't for everyone. Sometimes I miss the pop of the chrome wheels.

If I were to replace my wheels in the future, the ones I'd get are the Fuel Maverick D260 with the gloss black lip & Chrome center. Here is a pic of them in the 22" size.....I'd just go for the 20".

I know they look outstanding. Funny though....my wife says too much chrome....like my all black wheels better.

I'm thinking she likes the wheels I've spent the money on better than the ones I'll have to spend more money to get. She's the brains & I'm the.....not brains.

My 18's on 35's. I think it depends on what wheel you get, for example a Fuel Maverick I think will look way better in a 20 or even 22, whereas the Fuel Boost that I have looks better in 18's[emoji4]

Hey Longhorn your truck looks great. Would your set up work on bilstein level up front or does it need the 6 inch lift? I saw a truck that looked good with 305/65r18 size on it but not finding a lot of tire choices in that size.

Try going to discount tire. They will do I internet price matching. Love my Nitto grapplers in that size. Little pricy but worth it.
