Where do these guys find wheels that wide?? I'm looking for 17x10 or wider, but not finding them. All I see is 17x9 and it doesn't work for me on a 15" wide tire.

I personally don't like the small tires on a lifted truck.

I think the OBS should stick to the trends of there era. But, I think the white/gray and all black obs pictures here are good looking trucks.

for now im running 33x12.50x15 mt/r's since i got them for free. on 15x12 weld scorpios but they have been discontinued for a while and i got them used. o and im running 2in wheel spacers. the wideness i believe makes the tire actually look like 35s. should post your truck up!

17 is kind of a goofy size to find rims for. but there are tons of 16.5x12 and 16.5x14 welds around here for sale.. this obsivouly doesnt help youat all.

i think that trends are set in different areas or certain types of vehicles. not exactely era's. but thanks

Edit: unless your referring to 20s and 22s on an obs, just seem too big and flashy ... but a good example of conflicting era's would be an 18in rim on an obs. i think they look very good

I think they're all trailer queen mall cruisers and get to much time spent getting their rims buffed.i'll be impressed when they are muddy wheeling instead of posing for pics like a model, UBER GHEY!... sorry
