Default What wheels for my truck?

I'm having a hard time deciding on what wheels I want to get for my truck. Price isn't as much the problem as indecision is. I'm going to be pairing them with some 33" BFG All-Terrains and I'm looking for a 17" wheel size.

What wheels do you guys recomend?

Here's a picture of my truck to give you an idea of what it looks like.



Thanks for any input.

honestly you should pick up someones old FX4 wheels i sold mine to a guy that had some 33x1250 17s destinations on em and they look sweet the fx4 wheel is a good looking wheel though also our bolt pattern is almost obsolete now and its hard finding wheels i actually looked for about 2 months and was on a waiting list to get a set of blanks in the rockstars to get cut for my truck but a buddy from wheel pros called and said he got a guy from american racing that will cut me some of the brand new american racing atx artillery black teflon coated 18s.. that was a while back though when they first came out..check the for sale thread and my albums any more questions just ask good looking truck btw hope you find what your looking for

-peace

You can actually buy FX4 rims from online. Brand new.. someone posted a link, I can't remember where.. Look in my album at my truck. It's stock like yours with FX4 rims.. they are 265s not 285s but you get the idea.

I'm not a big fan of the stock FX4 rims personally.

I was looking at some Dick Cepek DC-1 blacks or DC-1 Polished. What do you guys think about those?

Also still open to any ideas.

The Ballistic Jester in black would be a good option.

XD 797 Spy Black and Machined


Ballistic Off-Road Wheels 810 Wizard Chrome

Incubus EMR 501 Poltergeist


I like the look of these three wheels. Any websites or anything where I can see what they look like on my truck?

Found another one I like. It's the American Outlaw Buckshot in Black/Machined. Will these fit my truck?
