Wheel Question.
I am in need for new tires. OK, I think I might try to swing new wheels this time. I have always had stock wheels running oversize tires. I know this is not recommended, but it has worked fine. I am and will continue to run 315's or 35 inch tires. My question, What rims do you guys like and recommend? I like the black rims, but I also like the polished and brushed, in other words, I just don't know. Price will be part of the equation, but looks will be to. Also, what back set do I need? I don't want to add any extra stress to the bearings and hubs. Thanks

Barry, post a side view picture of your truck, then post a pic to any wheels you are considering. Then let the photoshop guru's combind the pics for you to see what your truck looks like with the wheels.
I can't do it, but I've seen others here do the same thing.

I'll work on something like that, but I first got to narrow down what I want. I like the black finish, but I like the others as well. Got to do something, Tires are getting thin and I want to do both at the same time if I can.
