New Rim Options
So hard to tell by looking at pictures, what may look good when installed.
Here’s two I’ve found so far.
Thoughts? Send me pics of what ya’ll have too.
Thanks
In the end, I kept steel 15x8 wheels with 10 "D" shape holes, and I used chrome steel lug nuts and deep dish stainless steel rings and stainless steel centers.
I know, not for everyone, but they work for me and the SS doesn't water spot. I use short valve stems and only the caps stick out, and I carry a 3/8" nut driver to remove the sunk valve caps.

question is...what does the wife like? as it is her truck.
When I hunt for wheels, I do a search and look at the images till I find something. Or i see what's available in the size i want and go from there.
I like us mag wheels, or i think mickey Thompson makes similar. the old steel wagon wheels are a classic and similar to tbear's. I'd even do the steel version of the first wheel you posted. I used to have those on My first 74 F250 when I was 16.

She'll stew over this decision for weeks, maybe months, but most likely years. Make a comment about wheels on a different vehicle or mention different wheels for this vehicle in the future and you'll not stop hearing about the choice you made for her......even though the facts stated and presented in divorce court show she said, "I don't care."

Well, I couldn't decide either, I have both.🤣 I know these aren't dent sides but at least the 65 is on a 78 chassis.😉 Those are 17" with 33's on the 65 and 15" with 31's on the 81. Both are American Racing. The Baja would look more like the one you pictured if I'd gone with a different offset/back spacing. Good luck to you.

Aired down to 18f 15r up hunting in the high country, plenty of sidewall to smooth the ride
