I went with these! Liquidmetal Wingmans!

I ended up going with the 20" MB Predators for my truck but these were my second choice (they are also available in 22's).

I agree. The KMC XD series has some fine selections. Personally I've been eying these.



Simple and understated but with a deep dish and lots of shine. Perfect for a black truck.

Not to mention you can get a fake Bead Lock on the Diesels.

i do like the beadlock option. But nto sure if i would get them.

i do like those diesels....but they would be more tedious to clean also with all the holes. but it doesnt have many corners or edges to clean hiding brake dust....so i guess it trades off.

i wanted the Hoss's...but they only come in a 20X9.....i need atleast a 10" wide rim for getting 15.50" tires.

What about a pair of black rockstars thump? I really like the badlands though.. There is a guy locally with an f250 on an 8inch rize with 40's and 22inch badlands and it looks sick.

Black Rockstars 20X10
Chrome Diesels 20X10
American Racing Black Thugs 20X10

prob need to find another chrome wheel or two to compare well.

I wouldn't do the fake beadlock...it gives your rim the optical illusion that it is smaller than it is. I've seen 20s look like they are 15s...I had to take a double look. You spend money on a nice big rim, why make it look smaller with something that serves no purpose?

Did you ever get the Balzac's on your truck before you got rid of it? I think it'd look good on my truck, it'd give it a nice contrast.
