I like all 3 ('11 FX wheels, '09-'10 FX4 wheels, and the '09-'11 plat wheels) so I am not much help.

well, the way I figure, I'm the only one in the area that I know of that has the FX4 20's on a single/reg cab.... So I know I'd def be the only one with Plat wheels if I put them on. I'm just curious what's more unique...

I like the wheels you got on but if I had my choice, I'd go with the plats (not just because I have a plat)...in terms of uniqueness; Plats.

Well for me, when I see someone with a specific model add something from another model, it comes across that person has "model envy" and didn't get what they wanted. I am not saying that is the case for you, I am just saying how that looks to me because I am into all the models: FX4 buyer wished he had an upscale Platinum, or Platinum buyer wished he had an offroad FX4 look.

Despite that, I think your truck looks great the way it is. If you're going to change, go aftermarket because then it's obvious you wanted something specific or personalized.

...well, I still like your current setup but the Plat wheels are nice. Really can't go wrong either way, but go for it since you're looking for change!

I'm guessing these are the wheels you are considering?

If so, I'd trade yours for these in a heartbeat.
