I attached some older pictures cause they were the ones you could see the wheels the best. I kinda like the stance in the one where the rear end is real low..that's 2" lowering shackles and like 45-50 car batteries and a couple tires in the rear lol. Both pictures were taken when I worked for Acura.

What style wheel do you like? Black? Chrome? Do you like having a lip on the wheel or no? I put mb tko's on my truck mainly because they were the best looking wheel that I could find in our bolt pattern in my opinion.

To add to foley, there's always that person that cheaped out and learned the hard way to spend more now and less later.
I've never personally seen a case of quality Bora or machine shop built spacers fail

If you change the spacer width to metric itll help a little with the math. So 25.4mm equals 1" then just add the offset from the spacer to the offset of the wheel (which youll need to find out.)
So I ordered a wheel with +18mm offset then added a 1.75" spacer to get -26.5mm (rounded up) offset.
Edit- Not as "stancy" as others but I prefer being a little different as Im in Ca. and that "Cali look" where the small diameter tires poking out of a huge truck looks silly to me. Theyre mostly 3/4 and 1 tons though.

Theyre Moto Metal m0961. They only come in +18 offset with our bolt pattern. Mine are 18x9. IIRC theres a 20x9" option too. They come with both red and chrome inserts. They will fit your truck good but wont likely stick out any. I had to get spacers due to the lift.
