I got some moto metal 909's with some 35 Nitto trail grappler M/T. So far I am pleased with the combination. Haven't gotten stuck yet and they clean themselves pretty good. Plus the noise isn't to bad for a M/T.

not sure what type of wheels you are into, just looked at these and i really like them. fairly simple but not too boring.

yea the price didnt seem too steep, you can maybe even find cheaper if you shop around a little. they would look good on your truck.

the monsters are a really nice looking wheel, there is no question why they are so popular. but for me that is also a problem. i dont like seeing every other truck on the road riding the same thing as me. i like to have a little more uniqueness in things like wheels. my truck had moto metal 951s when i bought it, never really liked the wheel to begin with but it really irritated me when i saw like 4 other f150s with the same wheels in the small city i lived in, so i took a can to them and coverd up the ugly checkered look they have, they look much better and most people dont know whta wheel they are. they will do until i can afford some new wheels. whatever your decision im sure you will love it.
