Got ahold of some chrome clads. Been looking for sports but picked these up for 400 on craigslist and were actually in really good shape. I took the stock tires off and put 305/50/20 in rear and 275/55/20 in front. I think the truck looks a lot better with the look I'm going for. These will do until I can get the 17" wheels from Moe's. Here's a few pics of the new ones and one of the wheels I had before.

I like them but seeing the stock wheels the chrome ones look very chunky for the truck. Nice ride though for sure man!

Looks great man. I COMPLETELY AGREE that I wish the R/T came w/ the Sport 20's. I have been thinking about switching myself. I just dont like the 22's. I have had mine for over a yr now & the 22's just arent growing on me.

How is the ride going from the 22's to 20's?

Glad I'm not alone man. The RT would have been much better off with sports and forged at that. The ride has been a bit smoother because of the extra give the tires are providing so it is nice not to feel every bump since I'm lowered

No sir, forged 22s were sold about a month after buying truck. These are rt replicas. I have been through 4 sets of wheels since may 2016. Yeah I am a bit crazy
