I really like the stock 20's that I ordered my truck with but after seeing all the pics of members with the aftermarket wheels (Chrome 20" MM 951's in particular) I am really leaning towards going that route.

If I was to get a set of aftermarket wheels they would be on the truck year round and I am worried about the chrome pitting or rusting due to the salty roads.

I am just curious as to how well they hold up in the winter weather conditions?

Also, what would I need to do to prevent the TPMS light from always being on?

Thanks for the help.

 

You will have to have the sensors mounted on the new wheels to keep the dash light off.

 

I worry about the same thing in the winter. Iowa winters really suck and they seem to put down a ton of salt. I am leaning towards getting a black wheel. Seems that they should hold up better then chrome. I really want to go with chrome, but I am concerned about ruining them in the winter. I guess you could always use the stock wheels in the winter.

I wonder how good black painted wheels hold up in the winter though......Might have problems with anything but stock with the salt in the winter..........

 

I love the look of my MM951's, but have allready noticed some chrome peeling off the insides, just a tiny bit, but still a bit upsetting.

Good luck with yer rims its amazing how much they improve the looks of these truck!

 

Honestly, I would just snag the wheels and tires you want, and hold onto the stockers. If you just run some stockers for winters they should last a long, long time.

And like you said, your stock wheels look good too

 

x 2, just put your stockers back on for the winter months.

 

ummm duh

 

Thanks but I was looking to sell my stockers to help off-set the cost of the new wheels and tires.

I guess that I will be staying with the stock ones.

 

Go with my plan since you don't have a problem staying with your stock ones for now. Pick out what you like and just watch ebay and classifieds till they pop up cheap. Nothing wrong with being patient and seizing a good deal when it comes along.
