i think they look sweet, and i could see you goin up or down with them, i like dubs with meats on a lifted truck.
and they fill the wheelwell pretty damn good right now, level the rear with shackles and they'd look like they were born there

$250!!!?? for all 4 and rubbers?
the only reason i wouldn't get them is that i need a +35-40 offset. and those wouldn't cut it

I like the style of the rims, I'm just not a fan of a low sidewall on a stock height truck. For 250 I'd take them too. If I were you I'dburn those tires off, make a cool video that we can all enjoy on you tube, Give it a lift, and slap aset of meaty tires on... But thats just me lol.

Not my style either, but I don't think it looks bad. If I wanted that type of set-up, I would say it looks good and for that price, why not! If you like it, then drive it with a big smile because that's really all that matters. If someone else doesn't like it, who cares.

Just from all of the comments on this thread Im gonna stay on this site. You guys are great, and know what looks good. Even if you dont like it you complimented and thats what open mindedness and forums are about. Got to my turbo thread and read what has been said on it. It was an idea took the wrong way. Thats how you dont act on forums. Thank you guys for the compliments. Im keeping all options open and definetly your ideas will be reflected on my truck in one way or another.

I think you took the comments about your turbo, "air leak" to seriously, and things got out of hand. I live in the Pa. mountains where the 20" wheels you have would not be practical. To much winter weather and salt. Not only that, but my truck is a 4x4, and I like to play. I think they look great on the truck, and you can barely get two tires for the price you paid. I kind of understand about the tire circumference making up for the larger diameter of the wheels, but I was wondering if the larger wheels affects the speedometer or the cruise control ?

Looks great. As long as your not climbing sand dunes and 5ft deep mud bogging I think that they will be alright. I think that it fits the truck really nice.
