gettin wheels & tires, need opinions.

I have a 2004 fx4 super cab all black and stock except for chrome door and tailgate handles. im getting a 2.5 inch rough country level kit installed i cant decide on my rims im hung between 18" rockstars in black, **** cepek torques, and dale jr cannons with just a 275/65/18 all terrain tire, which i have not choose either. im not trying to break the bank and im not trying to drop 1500.00 dollars on tires every few years that's why im sticking with the 275 tire any help would be great on all the options out there.

If you're going with black wheel's I would get rid of the chrome on the truck or go with chrome wheel's. Also I would go with a 285x65x18 tire, these are only one size up from stock and on a leveled truck with aftermarket wheel's they would look better. Just my 2 cent's!

yea i wouldn't go any smaller than a 33 with it being leveled
Also if you go with black then you should black out the whole truck if not go chrome

Go with Nitto Terra Grapplers if you want a tire that will last you a long time and has an aggressive tread....i believe lots of others will agree
