Default Stock wheel or Stock wheel? hmm...lol

Was messing around with paint. Theres a set of these rims I found for sale... I know they are just stockers, but is it worth the upgrade? (steel to alloy)




What ya's think? (btw, the tires are just me screwing around too... just judge rim to rim.)

I need new tires and are purchasing bfg's (all terrain or mud km2) anyway this summer. I want to go stock size diameter with the 3.55 gears as I don't want any less torque (tried to scale with current tire). 245/75/16 or 265/70/16 is what im looking at although it kind of looks silly with the level kit. My stock steel's do the trick and im basically paying $100 for appearance that no one is gonna notice as these are stock wheels as well :/ btw, thanks for the input.

Yeah I've always been a fan of that rim personally which is why im considering it. Had some more fun this morning... check this out



I think it looks nice as anything... but also costs four times as much as the other alloys.

If you like black rims paint the alloys black and see what it looks like on your truck.
