Which rims?
Alright, I'm looking at getting some new rims. Kinda gettin sick of the ones I've got and one is bent anyway. I'm looking at either the Diamo 8karats in black or the black monsters. I've considered the black ultra goliaths as well but I've narrowed it down to the first two I think. Here's a picture of my truck:
I've debadged and added black cab lights and a laramie bumper since these pics but same other than that.
Also I'm debating on goin with 18s again or steppin up to 20s. I've never been a huge fan of 20s but lately they've been kinda growin on me for some reason. But if I stay with 18s, I don't have to get new tires. Let me know what yall think and if any of you have pics of your trucks with any of these rims on em post em up.
P.S. Sorry for the huge pics.

Get the black machined 8ks I like the look of them alot but I have the chrome ones. Are you running the nitto's in the pics or the Pro comps in your sig? If your tires are over 50% then sell the wheels and tires together you might be able to get a little extra cash. If not keep them on 18's

Right now I have the pro comps because I got them cheap when my nittos wore out. But when I get new tires I'm either gonna get the mud graps again or the new trail grapplers. The ones I have now are a little under half tread

Get the 20'' then. They will look good mine are 20's on 35's but they don't even look like it. A guy in ft worth walked up to me last week and asked me if I had 18" wheels on 33" tires. They don't look like what they are cause of the size of the truck I guess not proportional.

Mine are Ballistic Hostels that I got at Discount Tires. 18", and while I don't remember the backspace and offset off the top of my head, the numbers work very well for our trucks. No rubbing or clearance problems at all. I think I could have fit 37's with no problem. Right now I have 35" Toyo MT's. Just a thought, because when I was looking around for wheels, it wasn't easy to find what I liked with a backspace and offset that works with our trucks, and I didn't want to spend the dollars on some of the wheels I looked at.

I like those hostels alot. Hey Alfredo, I agree with you the 20s would look good. I'll just have to decide what I wanna do, and if I can get any money selling the ones I've got right now. Hey on a different note, what front bumper do you have? Looks like fab fours but its different. I like it alot

What happend was that I bought it pretty close to the time they had first come out with them, I had talked to the TC down by Houston and he had it worked out to like $1450 raw metal. He advised me to talk to a dealer close to me so I talked to "Brian" from Kustom Koncepts and he made me a good deal on it, he saved on the shipping cause he was ordering more bumpers and he didn't make much on it himself he said. So I got a real good deal
