Default KMC Rocktar rims

I was wondering if anyone has the KMC Rockstar wheels. My dilema is that I don't know if I should go with 20" or 18" wheels. I am going for the matte black wheels cause my truck is matte black. Also, if anyone knows where I can get the Audi style headlights foe my truck. (if they even make them for dodge) If you don't know what the headlights look like... They are the ones on the new Audi A5....SICK!!!!!!!

If you do any 4 wheeling and are going with anything under a 36" tire then I would go with 18". If you don't 4 wheel and/or are going with bigger tires then 20's look nice.

I have 37" tires and 20X10 Rockstars


However I have since painted the star to match the truck. (cell pic)

OH NO. I beat it up. I am on my second front bumper and it is cracked now on the bottom spoiler from dropping down on a rock. I have what we here in Colorado call "Colorado Pin Stripe" We have trees on almost every trail here in the Mountains and so I have lots of small scratches. Most will buff out but some wont. I didn't buy a 4x4 truck to drive like a honda.



This is my second rear bumper too. But the first one was not my fault. This one 100% was

My truck is just like urs, gray, 5" suspension lift, 35" nittos, 18" black rockstars, exactly the same except the color of our body lol, and ur front bumper is lower than mine(looks like). About to be the same as you or higher, getting 3" body and about 1" on my add-a-leaf. 37" pro-comp xtreme terrains(like baja claws).

So do you like the 20" inch rims, or do you wish you would have gone with a smaller tire. I am not huge off roader, but I love to play in the mud. And I have heard and read that 20's might not be the best size to go with. How do you feel about them?

do you have a lift on your truck. THe only thing that makes me want to go down in size is the price difference.
