Wheel & Tires (The people will decide)




Waiting on volant kit next mod will be wheel and tires. Looking at 20" what I have now is 265 x 60 x 18. Take a look at this picture, tell me what brand of wheel or tires should I put on this truck? I look at moto metal, torque thruster by american wheels, eagle, xd monster and many others. Will be willing to spend approx. $2,000.00 for a complete setup. If bought over the internet someone will have to install the TPMS.

Thanks

Could you tell us what your plans are with the truck first? If you plan to keep it at a factory ride height I would go something like I have.

Something sleek and form fitting rather than wide and gutsy. If you are looking to level, or lift go with something more aggressive and meaty. It all really depends on your outlook on the truck.

Well with the billsteins you can adjust the height on the front to level it out and then go for a more aggressive stance on your truck. and would look really good with some chrome monsters

I stepped down from a 20 to an 18 when I did my leveling kit.

Prices on 18's wheels and tires was much better and less limited.

Just food for thought.

The great color of your truck will only be enhanced by installing the Chrome Monsters... It should look awesome with those wheels...

I know its overplayed , but i think Moto Metal 951's will look great with the amount of chrome you have. Hey they are over played for a reason

20x9 MM951 5.71 backspacing
and an aggressive 305/55R20 A/T


I wouldnt go with chrome monsters , i think they look fugly in chrome.

as Hash said the XD Hoss would look good in a 20" as well
