If you get them, I might buy your old rims. I like the way the look.

Maybe I'll polish 'em?

IDK, They look kinda boring to me... Guess I would have to see them photoshopped on your truck to tell if it'd look good or not... but then again, you might think they look awesome...

You're right. Those are the most boring 3rd gen wheels out there.

I have them on mine. Not real impressed. I did go from 16s to 17 and got them with tires for less than $225 for all four. They look okay, but nothing to write home about.

Could you upload a pic or send something my way so I can take a look? The pic in your album was of a white ram, but it didn't have the rims I am talking about.

I think these would look better than the OEMs on there right now. Also, I can get them for even less than what you spent ($225). Its not a bad deal. I think this would be the second time putting $$ in to the truck for something that wasn't broken.

true, they arent like the 5 stars on the 06 models. I love those rims. I can get the 2ng gen off-road ones, but the guy wants more than double the price and the tires are miss matched.

If the ones in your avatar are the ones on it now, I think they look much better, those are the ones that I have on mine, and they look pretty sharp... in my opinion.. I dunno, maybe its cuz I'm getting old and senile... hehe

Really? I think those are the ugliest rims ever. I don't want flashy chrome rims that make the truck look ghetto. I like the ones i posted because they aren't flashy. I guess i am getting old too if i don't want flashy chrome ghetto's on my truck.
When i go look at the rims I will put them in front of my tires and take a step back and see if i like it. If not, then I keep the $$ and waste it on something else.
