Alright, finally gonna pull the trigger and upgrade the wheels but I need help.

I have a White '15 Laramie CC, leveled, with BFG KO2s in stock size. I will keep these for now. I do not liek the all black look on white trucks, but I do like some of the machined finished looks. (Truth be told, i like the look of the chrome clad wheels with white trucks, but they are, alas, chrome CLAD). I want to ditch the stock look without getting a wheel that looks like I tried too hard.

So that being said, I have narrowed down some choices, and I have been blatantly copying some pictures of some nice looking white rams here. So If you see your truck, yes, I've been stalking you.

First is a picture of what I have now

Second is the Dropstar MB645

Third is the Moto Metal MO970 in all black

Fourth is the same wheel in machined (which I prefer to the all black). I can not find this wheel on a Ram anywhere for comparison.

Each of these would be in 0 offset to bring the tires flush with my Laramie flares. Thoughts? Suggestings? Other ideas?

Definitely like the fourth pic. I like the dark machined look plus I have always personally liked 8 & 10 spoked wheels.

Love the 970's! For the eye candy & modesty on the wallet, you can't go wrong. Here's a pic of the more blacked out version on a white RAM on Custom Offset's site.

Yeah, my 15 yo son likes the all-black. I'm not sold on the look on an all white ram. But I do really like these machined ones. Plus they would be much easier to clean than the Dropstars.

Decisions....

Machined motos gets my vote

These seem to be running away with the vote. Perhaps we have a winner. Plus, price wise, they are pretty reasonable. $853 for a set right now.

I am in your exact same boat. Have a White Ram1500 but don't want completely black wheels. Too dark. I am leaning toward Vision Warrior 375's.

My Black '15 Big Horn is coming home today with new Fuel Throttle's. Fuel makes some pretty awesome wheels. Can't wait to see them on the truck.

Found a picture of the wheels on a white ram. Wider wheel and offset than i'm going for but it gives me a visual.

I decided on the Machined Motos based on all the feedback. Plus I saw some in person today on a jeep. Looked really sharp. Thanks guys!
