I need to be really careful. If I spend a couple grand on wheels and something rubs, my wife will castrate me.

Fuel were more than I wanted to spend and the dark tint had a “bronze-ish” look to it. I got a smokin’ deal on these XD “Heist”, matte black with milled edges.
Ordered up today!

Looks good! Should sit about 1/2" further out than the OEM.

That's what we figured out about the offset. The guy was pretty cool! Went into google images and showed me a bunch of 150's in Ingot with that wheel before I committed to the purchase. Should be installed by weeks end. I was pretty set on the Fuels but really didn't like the color on my rig!

Nice! Those should look great on your truck. What tires are you running right now? I debated getting the Fuel Beast's, but decided I wanted chrome on my truck. Kinda kicking myself for it because they did a HORRIBLE job on the prep before chroming. They're bubbling up, and have been since October (3 months after installation) last year when I started fighting Hostile through Discount Tire (where I bought them). We're not getting much response so I'm about to start blasting them everywhere. I'm angry, mine were ~$1600...

I'm running Bridgestone Duelers. That's what was on it since I bought it used. Put 36k on them and they still have a lot of life left in them. They handle nicely wet or dry. I'm not really going for an "off road" look but more of a "street look"!
i really liked the Fuel Beast but I saw one in the "dark tint" and it just looked off for what I'm going for. Ingot with a tiny bit of chrome, matte black trim and bumpers and front windows tinted to match rears. Once the wheels are done, the next step will be wrapping the bumpers.
I got the 4wheels, lugs, locks, labor and lifetime balancing for $1180 out the door.
