Default Help me decide on rims!

I've narrowed down my selection to 3 of my faves... but I don't know which ones, I'm leaning towards the CRAWL ATX185's though after doing these up...

Everything is 20"

Torque Thrust ST's (I've always loved these rims)


DaleJR, 708's


Crawl ATX185


I'd be getting the rims in the spring. Or now if a deal could be had... They'd collect dust in the AR boxes before they got installed, I just don't think a 9" wide rim would fit under my bed though...

Not a big fan of Torque Thrusts on trucks. I do like black rims but i'd probably go with the 708's in the end. Unless the ATX's were cheaper haha.

I think you should find a set of Cadillac take offs in your local buy/sell. Ive seen them for sale for 500 a set in my local sales ads, and that has tires on it with less than 10K on them.

If you really want a heavy *** bad fuel milage aftermarket rim, then get the second ones cuase you have alot of chrome on the truck.

If you plan on blacking out the chrome, then get the third ones.

The first ones look silly on trucks. They are for muscle cars.

I may only go up to 18" rims, because 20's are heavy

The ATX 185's look the best, but i don't care much for all three.

Cragar 8's!!!!!

I like the last ones... and the Torque thrusts suck unless they are 5 spoke... I personally hate 6 spoke wheels.

I like the 708's. But i'd still prefer something with a little more dish(lip) to them!!!
