Default Dick Cepek Wheels

Pretty sure I have decided on Dick Cepek Gun Metal 7 wheels for my truck. And either Nitto's or Toyo's for the tires. Here's the wheel and then a photoshop of the wheels on my truck. Overall its my decision but was just looking for some feedback from some people before I make the purchase. Thanks!

I honestly love those wheels. At one point I was going to buy them myself. There was two reasons why I didn't. One I didn't want to go with 17's or bigger, and two, I wanted a really high negative offset rather than 0 offset. I say go for it! They're a damn good looking wheel IMO.

I think they look really good. I have 17s now so that doesnt bother me and do you happen to know the offset of the stock wheels from ford? Just wondering if they will stick out anymore than my stock wheels. thanks for the input!

I honestly don't know off hand. I wanna say my old 16's were 0, but don't quote me. They should stick out some what more than factory being a 17x9 and 5" backspacing. I doubt they poke out past the fenders, or even with them, but I could be wrong.

Yea I figured they will barely stick out past the fender if at all but thats ok. Just looking for some updated wheels and some agressive tires.

Thanks! I hope so. Picking out wheels is probably one of the hardest things. So many options and once you find one you like you have to decide if it will look good on your truck. But I think these will look good.

In the magazines, they looks cool. Mounted they look more like an import wheel that should have low-pros on it.

I think they look pretty good mounted. Guess everyones opinions are different. If your not a fan of the DC's you have any other opinions on something that would look good?
