I really like the Addicts. The black Addicts with the polished spokes look really nice as well.

I like the craven chop, but those addicts are one of my fave wheels, I had thought about them for my truck. I think they'd look great.

just wait for it cody. before you know it you will be out of school and working. Things that are a dream right now will be reality a LOT sooner then you think. Never thought I would own anything like either truck or motorcycle.

yeah, honestly the rims i am rocking i got just because they had 35s mounted already and i knew i could get 'em for a steal of a deal. when money is tight just keep your eyes out for deals, and don't worry about things you can't afford. eventually a deal will come up you can't pass up.

And Reece, you looking for a nice set of chrome rims? lol, cuz i am always open to trading mine off for something else since i decided against going with chrome throughout my truck....

i got some cheap cheap cheap rattle cans in the shop....i'll rattle can them for you black. lol. honestly i would've been surprised if you had said yes, your truck would look off how it is with chrome rims. lol. my truck will still look good with chromes, although they will have to go in a year, two tops....

I would say when you do get wheels to go for the 18's, that's what I did, not only are tires cheaper, but I like the way the tires look on a smaller wheel as well
