Which Wheel?

Okay guys need some input on some wheels. I know what lift shocks and tires I am getting now I need to decide which wheel. I was looking at pro comp with chrome or knight chrome finish. What do you guys think about those wheels. It must be 20's. The size I am looking at are 20 x 12 not to many choices. Might have to look at 20x 10. Does anyone have these wheels? What other good quality brands are out there?

Thanks

Well I have 20's on there now and it looks good. The only thing is that the wheel I have can only put 33's as max dia. I have a couple of friends that have 20's on there trucks and they look good. The wheels that I have on there right also rubs the spring when turned all the way . The wheel has a 5" BS. So I think my truck would look good with 20's and 35's.

My wheels have 5" backspacing as well which allows me to run 37's on a 4" lift. They also rub on the springs but thats a cost I can live with! LOL

Good luck!

Talked to pro comp yesterday and the wheels that I wanted was no longer made.. They said we are limited with our truck because of the back space we need. Iam still looking around at different brands.

Yah that seems pretty small. But you know what I have 305/50/20 on there now imagine how small that looks. For the 33" on that wheel it says on the back do not mount anything bigger than 33" dia.
