After a year or two when the American Racing wheels start pitting and/or rusting you'll wish you would have kept the OEM wheels. I've had 2 sets of AR wheels and one was great and the other had problems with the chrome plating. The wheels look good on your truck but I'd keep the stockers which look good and use the money to buy tires. Some 275x60x20 BFG's or Duratracs would look good on there!! Just my 2 cent's.

I agree. I have yet to own a set of aftermarket wheels that didn't give me some sort of hassle. Keep the OEMs, buy some tires. Plus, your truck looks awesome as it is.

I have AR wheels on my truck (going on 3 years now) and they are still flawless. Perhaps as everything else advances with time, AR's process for plating aluminum wheels has improved? No idea on any AR steel wheels that could rust, didn't know they made any thing other than aluminum, at least not in the past 20 years any way.
OP pick what you want and go for it, on the other hand the stock wheels on your truck do look nice, I'd have a hard time replacing those if they were on my truck. I must have looked at hundreds of different rims and sizes etc... before settling with the ones I now have.
My oem wheels were too busy for my liking, too many spokes.

Which OE wheels did you have? Nevermind, went be nosey and checked your pics, same ones I have.
I just can't find any I like, I don't like chrome much, hate the black wheels, and can't find a brushed or machined set I like.
