Fair enough and I agree with the -12 to -36 adding stance.

Steel wheels shouldnt chip. Just keep up on them and keep em clean. You wont need to pay big bucks for a solid set of black wheels, mine were only 630. Steel wheels will be about 100 a wheel though.

Um, yeah, no need to be a dick. I'm sure a lot of us could find something on your truck that we don't like, but most probably aren't gonna call you out on it just to be an ***.

Reference the pic above, those wheels on the right truck look just as good as any others.

I'm personally not a huge fan of steelies due to rust mainly, but the beefy, bare bones, off road styling looks good on the right truck. You should look into the ones MyFX4Project just got, they look like steel, but are aluminum I believe.

The major upside to steel wheels is if you ever bend one off roading you can easily straighten it with a hammer. Your screwed if you bend an alum. Although you sacrifice weight with the steelies. And it doesn't matter what anybody thinks about the looks of your rig on some online forum. As long as you are happy with it, who gives a flying ****....
