hmm.. personally, the XD Hoss wheels aren't bad, but if that's the look you're going for, I'd definately recommend looking into the ProComp 6005s wheels..

It's a very similar looking wheel, 8 spokes instead of 10, and its definately got a bolder look to it. I have ProComp 7005s wheels on my truck (same wheel, just black) and I love them! Mine are 20" but if you're going chrome, I'd probably recommend going 18" on whatever wheel you choose.

IMO, the XD Hoss wheels spokes sit too far into the wheel and have a little bit too much flare for a King Ranch.

here's some pics to compare:

here's a pic of the 6005s mounted, 18" on 35" toyo MT!:

Both wheels are nice, I guess im thinking an intermediate between them would be similar to my incubus brawns. Id recommend incubus rims if that was something you wanted to look into. a little deeper dish than the procomps but i dont think as much as the XD's. and they are a six spoke, the "dish" portion also is not flat it has a curve to it. I also beleive the incubus rims have more backspacing than the procomps. do you want them to stick out a bit, or tuck in? I prefer the stick out a bit cause it looks tougher. tucking the wheels in makes it look goofy(tall with no width kinda thing)

Yeah but i doubt he want rocks flying up and chipping that beautiful King Ranch paint. The backspacing on my rims is 5.4" and my tires stick out maybe .5" which keeps them from launching crap everywhere. I dont think it looks too goofy:

I like what FX4life has done. His sits pretty high and looks awesome. The fender flares look good on his truck. I think I want mine to sit more like Msall's.
