Default Which wheels should I get dodge forums?

I am going to buy one of the two wheels posted below and wrap them with BFGoodrich M/T 255/75r17, I just want to know which ones yall like best!


Thanks DF

Oh and I am thinking about having them powdercoated black. Think this will look good on my dark-ish red dak? ( i have the specialty shade of red too btw haha )

I have the first type. I like the way the spokes are polished on the raised edges and textured on the flat central part. They look good on black, but I've often considered painting them. too.
They're both Ram wheels from different model years.

I'm a trouble maker and non-conformist by nature. I like the 2nd set. I did a post on the same subject over the winter. 99.9% voted for wheel #1. Even had an insulting remark from some young punk, but I went with my gut (wheel #2) and couldn't be happier.

Ok thanks guys for all the comments. I feel like choosing a set of wheels can be one of the hardest decisions a person can make

My gut is to go with wheel number 2 and powdercoat it black to match the black lo-pro toolbox. Lets get a little more input from you guys, I am interested to hear yalls opinions.


Thanks DF
