What rims are those?

 

I believe they are called ProComp Stryker 7. They are forged aluminum. I got a great deal on them as they are 07' Procomp lineup, and they were selling out of them to make room for new 08 wheels.

 

Right on, thanks. I've been trying to decide on rims and looking for some that don't have all the goofy fake rivot and fake beadlock look. Thats a good lookin smooth rim for sure!

 

Thanks. I really think the Wheel is what makes the overall look of the truck complete. Sometimes you see a beautiful lifted truck that thousands of dollars has went into, but it still looks stupid because of poor wheel/tire choice.
My truck is white, so I looked long and hard for a forged wheel non chrome for it and hope I made the right decision. I will know by end of March when I get lift on.
Good luck decidin'.

 

Well I went ahead and ordered a set in 17's, couldn't pass them up at ~$350 shipped for the set. Hopefully the 4.75" offset will look ok with a fabtech lift. Mine as well all goes together at the end of March. Should give me plenty of time to get these wheels clear powdercoated since they are bare aluminum.

Can't wait to see what yours looks like with the 18's.

 

It will look great bud ! but might need some trimming. I am running 18x9.5 with 4.75" of backspacing with the Fabtech lift. I had to do some trimming on the bumper.

 

Heres mine

 

Right on. I'm not afraid to cut a little. You have any pics of your truck straight on from the front. Only thing I was concerned with is fabtech's kit pushing out the track width, don't want these to look like they stick too far out in the front.

 

ya I can snap some pics. Its not here at work with me. later tonight I will try to post some.

 

I know, I am a jerk, I forgot. Here are the pics I have now, kinda give you an idea:




as you can see, the front stick out about 1-2 inches farther up front (max).

In that last pic you can see how much the fronts stick out. A pretty good chunk, but IMO it looks real nice, gives it that mean, aggressive look.

 

Thanks for the pics man. I decided to swap my order to some 9" wheels with 5.5" of BS. I like the look with the wheels tucked in a bit more.

 

then you made a good choice. My tires stick out a pretty good amount. It was perfect for what i wanted, but definately not for everyone! Ya gotta post some pics once your set-up is on. You going to be running the Extreme A/T ?

 

Unfortunately I'm not running Extreme A/T's, I just kind of whored the thread to ask some questions to help me decide on what parts to order :o

I have a set of bfg KM2's waiting to go on. I'll be sure to post up pics when its done, will be towards the end of next month.

 

aww I see.... got me confused a bit there !


Those KM2's look so damn nice ! I love em! Definately post some pics for us !

 

So Mercedes...My 5" BS I just ordered will be about 1/2" set in further than yours? So like yours are sticking out about 1/2" further than mine will with 5" BS?

Man that stuffs confusing. Thanks
