In this picture, where it's silver I'd make it gold...

I think this would look killer in gold. Just didn't grow on me for red though.

Post a pic of your truck and a good pic of those wheels in this thread and see if someone will Photochop it for you. Might give you an idea. I still think color matching the gold would look sick though.

I have a feeling I'll just stick with stock rims for the time being... picking out aftermarket (especially on my truck) rims is stressful, time consuming and just... blahh to me lol. For now, I think it's decided that I'll stick with stock rims and just throw some 35x12.5 Open Country's on. Pictures will be soon to come!

Thanks for all your suggestions Cruizer! You had some nice looking rims picked out and your input was much appreciated! Thanks.

That can look good too. Just remember you will need at least a level and 1/4" wheel spacers to clear the upper control arms with a 12.5" wide tire. Can't wait to see it.

Well... I wanna stick with the 4 inch lift and 35s. And the tire will be 12.5" wide... so did I need 1/4 wheel spacers? Or do I need to get a bigger wheel spacer or what?

I'm just going to add, take your time with wheels bro, it took me a year and a half to find wheels that I was gt sure set on for my truck, I searched and searched for pictures, widths, offsets, everything. I had so many choices, then slowly I narrowed it down. Just take your time and choose the wheel you keep on going back to. You don't want to waste your time/money.

How old are you btw? Because your profile says in HS, and something about 15 yrs old

Yeah. I look alot for rims and pictures of them on trucks and what not. I really don't want to waste money on aftermarket rims and not like them, so for now it'll be the stock rims until I find some aftermarket rims that I REALLY like. I know the stock look, and really like it and think it would look very decent with bigger tires and fender flares in my gold two-tone paint.

Haha. I knew someone would ask eventually. I really am 15 lone12star. I'm a sophomore in high school, and joined to get input on wheels and to show off and look at trucks.

To run 12.5" wide tires on OEM wheels you will need 1/4" spacers. It's not a height issue, it's a width issue. You will rub the upper control arm if you don't put on spacers.

Alrighty. Is the 1/4" wheel spacers all I need to fit OEM rims?

Yep. With a 4" lift and 1/4" wheel spacers, you'll be able to run 35's at 12.5" wide. Lots of guys have that setup.
