Looking for new wheels

I want to keep my 16x10 size and it seems harder to find decent looking wheels that aren't 18-22". I prefer the clean look which some may consider simple and boring. Does anyone have either of these ProComps and if so can you post a pic or two? Thanks.

I like both of these, maybe leaning toward the first one a little more. All those little holes look like a pain to clean though.

The wheels you have on your truck now, do you have a lift or spacers to get that size of wheel and tire to fit. I love that stance and size.

Thanks Brian. The wheels were on the truck when I bought it, I just want something new and different. It has a 4" hanger lift, no wheel spacers. Not sure what the wheel offset is.
With this setup, I get a slight rub at full left lock but my front springs are completely shot. With good springs, I wouldn't rub.

I like these too but they're only available in an 8" wide width. That may be too narrow. Post up if you have 16x8's on 315's too .

Yeah I love the stance. I don't have a lift on my 01 but I would like to get a set of wheel/tires to give mine that kind of look. I don't tow very much.

Are those the 8" rims in your avatar? I looked at your pics and they look deeper. What brand are they? Thanks.

Easy to clean is a huuuuuge plus. All those little holes had me wondering. Thanks.

no problems at all. I did get the center cap that cover the hub and lug nuts. Instead of the standard center cap.

Thanks for the pic, not often I see another with the same color. It seems fairly rare.

no they are Mickey Thompson ATZ's 35x13.50r20 Theyre good wet dry handling but totally suck on snow. I would think any tire this size would suck in snow though.
