Default New Wheel Suggestions for Black Laramie Crew

I have a black Laramie Crew Cab and I'm looking for some new wheels and tires. My '07 Laramie QC had the same crappy Goodyear Wrangler HP's and they'd spin all the way up the boat ramp trying to pull the boat out no matter what I did. On my '05 I had some MB wheels with a wider wheel/tire setup and I never had that problem. So, I'm looking for a new set of wheels and tires. I think I'm going to go with the Cooper Zeon LTZ's, since I've read pretty good reviews, but I still need a good wheel choice. Something that is chrome and black or silver and black would be nice. Anyone have suggestions? Better yet, anyone have pics they can share? Thanks in advance.

Good suggestion. I like the look of the spokes, but I prefer something with a center cap that sticks out.

Mikey likey.

How wide are they? What kind of tires were you pricing those out with? And is that a 20" or 22" size?

it was for 22s.... and i cant remember the tire size..

but i do remember that i changed my mind and wasnt going to buy tires from tire rack because they dont have any 285/40/22 tires (33 inch tire - same as stock)

thye have 305/40/22s which end up being like 32 inches though....

i like the first ones as well. i had 305/45/22 hankook ventus s/t's on my 99 and they were almost 33 inches. 32.8 to be exact according to a online tire calculator.

What tire size are you going with? (Height) Also what do you like low profile or high profile and are you planning on lifting your truck down the road? Is it 4x4?
