Pick my wheels!

Ok it's time I need to set my F-150 apart from all the other running around town. I'm not looking for something too flashy or too expensive. I want to try to stick with something that is easy to clean and either black/gray (some chrome is ok). Here is a picture of my truck and the wheels I'm looking at so far....



XD Series 766, 18":


FX2 Sport, 20":


MB Wheels 72, 18 or 20":


Powdercoated FX4 wheels, 18":


Yes I realize the FX4 wheels are from Pat's F-150 and that he painted them, but I wanted to give a visual of what I'm looking at. I currently have FX4 wheels sitting my garage.

Let's here some thoughts....

Really digging these new Jesse James at the moment. They come in 18 and 20 inch and you do not need to run a monster tire on these rims like shown in the pic below.

Those aren't bad...but they are starting to get out of my budget range....

Here's another option to throw in the mix.....keep my stock 17s, throw on some beefier tires, and use the extra money to Line-X my bed, and get an intake and tune from VMP....

Eagle Alloys makes some nice wheels that are inexpensive. They are made in the USA unlike most of the other wheels that are made in China. I have some Boss wheels that are made by Eagle and they are great.

I would just paint your stock wheels and buy bigger tires. That would be sick.
