What do you think of these wheels??

So I'm in the middle of this grueling search for the perfect Wheel and Tire combination. I have it narrowed down to three different wheel..Moto Metal 951.( you know what they look like ) Helo Max 6 ( you know what they look like ) and these pictured here. Forte F51 Lucky 7. Its a 20x9 with +35 offset. Luckily the tires are not a problem. I know I'm gettting the Nitto TG 305/55-20. I have a price on the tires and the Forte wheels of $2399 OTD mounted, balanced, Chrome stems and lugs and alignment. Just so you know..I will be installing the Autospring 2" level kit.

So the questions are...What do you think of these wheels? and do you think thats a good price?

Forte F51


MOTO METAL 951


HELO MAXX 6

I don't know about the price, but I'd say they look good. They are not very common (like the other 2) which is good. I'm not big on fancy wheels, but those should look great.

Hmmmm, well I gotta say. I seen them on an 04 CREW the other day but they were the painted silver ones. They looked really nice.

I hate this search for the right wheel. I may just say screw the whole thing.

Just so you all know, I will be installing my 2" autospring kit.

Disgusting. What ever happened to the days when trucks were trucks? Ever since women got into driving trucks Ford and the aftermarket people started sissyfying (?) them. Pretty soon they'll have hair dryers as an opition for the headrests.

Guess I better duck when Rose and LT read this.

That looks okay.

Not sure what the first two look like and I'm too lazy to search.

You want a MANLY set of wheels? Try searching for wheels with the spokes that look like peni's.

Well, all chrome is what I want. I think it will look real nice with my chrome steps and LT handles. Black wheels are just not an option for me. And like I said, I really don't want something everyone else has.

So, doing a little mre searching. I realized Forte made almost that same wheel, just with less spokes. So what do you guys think of this one? If you dont like it..tell me why. To many spokes? to much chrome? still to Ricey?...What?

New choice...Forte F49



Original choice Forte F51

I have no idea about those Forte's, they might look too much like Ram/SSt's truck and trust me, you don't want that (I'm really only kidding). I have no idea about that rim, but the Helo Maxx 6's look great on our trucks, definitely can't go wrong with that. I never liked the Moto Metal's, Kick *** has them and they look good but I wouldn't get them myself (once again, no offense, you have a great truck, mostly cause it's black)

Ahhh, I'm such a jerk.
