Inexpensive But Nice Black Wheels?

They are $69 a piece for 16x8. Surprising how much more expensive 16's get than 15's. You'll want something like 4.5" backspace if you want the wheels about 2" or so beyond where they are now with a 11.5" wide tire. I have 12.5" wide tires on 15x8 with 3.75" BS and they stick out of the fenders a good 3-4". Looks perfect IMO.
I'm not sure about 16" but when I was shopping for 15" rims I absolutely could not find anything over 4" BS, so I was forced to have them spaced like they are.
Also, don't paint your rims black. Stock painted rims always scream cheese to me. They also make the truck look stock to the average onlooker. You won't get the look you're going for either without using spacers.

These...also made in 15's and a "D" configuration.

Umm.. no.. spacers are not something that should be on any truck.. painted stock wheels are fine. Gives the truck a whole new look.. looks better than an empty wallet for buying ne wheels also.15 inch rims tend to not fit on a lot of rams due to clearance issues.. and yes he could get the look he wants without the stupid dangerous spacers.. rim width and backspacing will decide that look..

So what's a good rim width/offset that will put my tires out about 1-2" more?

Yeah I'll look around. I just don't like that they are like 20+ more dollars compared to 15" wheels.
