What do you think? Photoshopped!

I'm really searching for a wheel I like. I'm really leaning toward an 18x9 which is making my search very difficult. I'm not a fan of real busy, fancy wheels. I like clean. I really like the MT Classic 2s but their 18x9 doesn't come with a 5x135 bolt pattern. I really like the look of the KMX XD Hoss wheels but I'm not sure I'd like them in an 18x9. I'm thinking it's one of those wheels that look better bigger. Anyway, I chopped them to get some opinions. Also, the backspacing is more than what I'm looking for but at the same time I don't know what a wheel this size with that backspacing looks like. Backspace=5.71 (according to www.SFXperformance.com, I don't know anything about them except that they are the only ones that list the backspacing) and offset is listed as +18.

Yeah, you don't want that much bs on a 97-03. You want 4.5 to 5 inches.

4.5 is exactly what I want. But it seems like that only comes in wheels that I don't really want. Go figure.

What is the optimum backspacing for the 04+ trucks?

It's hard to tell what the Knight Chrome looks like in pictures. Is it a black chrome or a darker chrome than regular chrome?

I don't want a tire that low profile. I want some sidewall.

Have you looked at any of the moto metals or the Helos?? They have several things that may fit what you are looking for.
