Default Aftermarket Wheels

I've got an 06 Dakota club cab with just the ordinary steel painted wheels. I'd like to get something better, I like the look of the original equipment aluminum wheels, but Dodge wants an arm and a leg for them! Anybody have a source for decent wheels in the stock 16"?

You could try like tire rack... IDK I'm looking for rims myself... of course I'm in no hurry as I can't afford them right now anyway... I'm sure theres a better place to check than tire rack.

If you are looking just for wheels, you will find a large selection at bigwheels.net. As for tires, they do have wheel/tire packages (shipped mounted and balanced) but the tire selection isn't that great.

If you want the actual stock wheels best bet is ebay or someone selling theirs like AdidasCJ. If you're just looking for a 16" wheel fire up Google Tirerack is a good place to start but their selection is by no means exhaustive, I don't know of any sites that carry all the wheels, you just have to spend some time looking.

"You may want to look at these.

Do those "skins" come off as easy as they are supposed to go on?
