I usually replace OEM wheels on my trucks, but my 2020 Rebel came with wheels that I like, but don't love. Since I like them, I'm struggling with the decision to get a set of aftermarket wheels that I love due to having a hard time figuring out what, if any, after market wheels are higher quality than the OEM wheels.
OEM wheels, if you have to buy them as replacements, are absurdly expensive. I assume that is just a mopar thing, and their quality does not justify the cost. BUT, I'm just wondering if anybody knows if in fact OEM wheels are made better than a lot of the aftermarket offerings.
For example, I had a set of Mickey Thompsons on my 2018 that I liked a lot, but when I swapped them with my OEMs, did I replace them with something higher quality?
I'm currently looking at replacing my OEM Rebel wheels with a set from Black Rhino, so if anybody knows what kind of quality difference I can expect on top of OEM, that'd be great.
