Diamo 18" wheels

got a new truck yesterday (FX4 screw) I was wondering if these wheels would be ok on it.



I `m thinking 18" with a meatier tire would look better than a 20" rim and smaller side wall on a truck correct?

Can I get some tire recommendations please? something truck worthy but not a loud tire. I have no idea about truck tire sizes, I`ve had sports cars for the last 10 years
thanx!!

I like those. I'd suggest adding a 2 or 2.5 inch Autospring leveling kit and a set of 325/60-18 (33x13.00) all terrian tires. Some good choices in that size would be the Nitto Terra Grappler, Toyo AT, **** Cepek Radial FC II, Pro Comp Xtreme AT and the Mickey Thompson ATZ.

HMMM I did find 20`s too..
Those would fill up the wheel well a little better ...
Any thoughts? 18 or 20" ?

It's all personal preference, but I perfer an 18 inch wheel for a 33 inch tire.

Well the Diamos are out.. it`s a -12mm offset which would put the wheels in the next zip code past the fender ..lol


I had Discount tire put on these today but wasn`t crazy about them:



I`m leaning towards these:

I'd go with the GA's. That's a good price on a chrome 20" wheel, AND that is a good weight (35#) for a wheel that large (will help with your MPG).
