Question Rims

I purchased new tirees for my excursion. 285/75/16 AT BFgoodrich KO style. They fit the truck well, but I might be looking into getting some new rims for it also. Did I make a mistake and buy the tires to quick before looking at rims. 7.3 diesel engine.

Theres a lot of wheels made that are meant to directly replace the stock wheels without much of an issue. Althugh you might fall in love with a set of wheels that won't work with your tires

That really only matters if you want larger rims. If your tires are still new you may be able to get 70-80% of what you paid be reselling them since that is a pretty common size. When you get into 17' and larger rims though, the cost of tires really goes up. I spent $800 for a set of 16" wheels and tires when I first got my truck. I got a set of 17" wheels from my sister, and the tires alone cost about $1000.
