I like them as well, would look great with dark windows as well. Also help hide that dang brake dust that gets all over the wheels-I hate that...

Are they 16x8 or 16x10? Reason I'm asking the stock wheel is 16x8.. When I had my 35's on it the ride was very rough and the steering was choppy.. Do to the flexing of the sidewall.. When I went to my 16x10's it was more stable.. I'd recommend at least a 10 inch wide..

I'm pretty sure my stock were 16x8.. or maybe 16x7.5.. All I know is 35s, I wouldnt dare put on 8" wide wheels on a Superduty.. Too much sidewall flex and wandering.. Hit a bump and your all over the place.. Thats what happens when you put wide tires on narrow wheels :-P

But heck if you want to.. Go for it.. They are beautiful wheels.. Are they powdercoat black or black chrome?

Pretty sure they are available in 16x8 or 16x10. I thought a 16x10 on a Superduty would stick out real bad? Got any pics?

click on my signature image to go to my gallery.. can't post the link because of a certain word in it but in there go to my lift photo and you'll see 35s on my stock wheels then 35s on my new 16x10s.. They only stick out maybe 2 inches.. Nothing drastic.. 37x13.50 are the ones that massively stick out lol
