Question beadlock question

hey all,
im looking for some rims (16x8) to replace the horrible stock rims. i really want some nice rims, because im not putting too much into the truck (mod wise). i want to spend around $450 - $800 on rims. my first choice were the Eagle 058 rims, then i liked the M/T Classic II's. i dont know if the Classic II's will look good on the regular cab. anyway, since im not going all on the truck, i figured maybe ill go w/beadlock M/T Classic II's. now, would the beadlocks look or be retarded on a 2wd truck. i only use the truck for dialy driving, no off-roading really. what do you guys think. 1)Eagle 058's 2)M/T Classic II's 3)M/T Classic II Beadlocks.

Eagle 058

M/T Classic II's

M/T Classic II Beadlocks

thx all

No problem...I looked again at your truck and I really think that's the wheel to put on it if you can afford it...Black wall tires as well ...

You take care there now...

Beadlocks are currently in style. I think they would look good on your truck, as long as you go with an all-terrian or mud terrian tire. Just don't mount a low profile street tire on them. Stay with the "off road" theme.

I've gotta stray and go with the Classic II W/O the beadlocks. Unless your runnin' big rubber, I think it may look out of place. Those 32/33s your gonna put on... well, I guess if its a 16" wheel that's a lot of sidewall... might work. Tough call.

I'm zero help, as usual... *sigh*
