I want 18" rims but I dont want to spend $500 each on KORE/WELD's

Are the Kore/Weld rims the only 18" rims built for 2003+ CTD's I dont want my rims/tires to stick out way past the wheel wells. I like the look of spoke type rims, just like the KORE/Welds except the $500+ price tag

Thanks

Check out the American Eagle 114's...they look pretty good IMO...not to expensive either...164.00 for the "super finish" and 250.00 for the chrome in 18X9.5s..hope this helps, Jason



Edit: Not sure if they stick out or not...worth a try tho...

You can also check out Moto Metal, KMC, and Akuza for several companies that make a less expensive wheel.

What size tire are you looking at getting, based on my experience with that size of rim if you go with 35's you'll need more than a leveling kit...

The tire size all depends on what size bed I get. I will be getting a 4.5" lift with 35's on a short bed and 37's on a long bed.

I think 37's look stupid on a short bed, too short and too tall. I think you need a Long Bed to pull off 37's
