Help: Which wheel looks best?

Hi guy's, after weeks of searching, I am down to these last few wheels, can you guys tell me which you like best?

Unfortunately I couldn't find the wheels I really like, I wanted BBS like wheels like they make for Porches and BMW's but for some reason they assume since we own trucks we all want BIG CHROME and BIG METAL wheels.........

NOTE: Truck is a RED 2004 SCREW, soon to be sporting a Ferrari RED paint job (well....something close).

Option 1: These are the most cost effective, and I am leaning to these most


Option 2:


Option 3:


Let me know what you guys think.........

hmmmm I wouldnt go with any of those lol..... well especially not #1

Red is my favorite color f150, I wish I had a red f150!!! Although I dont like chrome, I think chrome looks best on red. if you dont like chrome at least find a wheel with chrome centercaps or some chrome accent.

I found the same thing. It's amazing they put out that huge wheel guide every year, but when you get down to specific vehicles, the choices are a lot more narrow than one would think. Unless of course you're made of cash and get something truly custom made.

None of the above. I don't like either of the three choices.

Yeah, I didn't want a red truck, I actually wanted a white one, unfortunately, the only white one in my price range had 168K and my red one had 95K, less features but miles are a HUGE determining factor for me, and they were both the same price.

Not much help guys...... :^( After looking at the post a day after seeing the wheels, I think option 1 looks cheap, so I might scratch those.

Any Info NCS?

What size? I am looking for 22'sx9.5 or wider............and how much do you want for them? Do they have tires?

818F150, Those wheels are 17's and 18's, I am looking for 22's.........24's look better in that humongous wheel well except, without a BIG Brake kit, it looks tacky to me.......so 22's are better.

I hate that 6pot Calipers are so damn expensive, every time I see a VW Toureg, Audi Q7or Cayann pass me by I feel so jealous. I wish I could mount those 6 pot on my Screw, would look really cool.

Honestly I don't know, but it is your truck. So whatever floats your boat, its hard to pick a color of wheel to match a red truck. Me I like the chrome it goes with the paint scheme.
