I enjoy threads like these. I like when people need attention and have to let everyone know what they like, as if to passively dismiss your own choice. Another form of this is the 6.2 owners needing to let others know they were idiots for spending extra money on an engine they feel you don’t need.

The psychology behind the internet is so informative.

I personally dont see the point of changing out the rims at all. Why cover up the locking front hubs? If you ever need them, it will suck ***** having to pull out a little hex key to get the centre cap off. Imagine being hub deep in mud and having to do that. No thanks.

Ive done that black rim look on trucks since 2008. I’m sick of spending money on after market upgrades to have a pretty truck. I don’t care anymore. Lol.

Ahhh...leveling kits. Another huge pet peeve of mine. LoL

Like they say...to each their own. At least leveling kits don't fill my search when I'm looking for wheels & tires.

These are 20 x 12” wheels. You cannot tuck these in any further inward. I saw this truck in a parking lot and I like the way the tire looked but it was sticking out too much for me. I’d run 20×10 inch On mine.
