Wheel Options for my 150

I am having a hard time trying to pick out what wheels to get. I have the tires picked out. Going with the KM2s. But as far as rims I have no idea what to get. I want something with a 5.25" BS and either 20x9 or 20x9.5...

Should I go chrome or black? I like my current chromes but I like black on certain trucks. I don't know if mine could pull it off.

Here are a few that I do like. For black I like:
Pro Comp 7005


Pro Comp 7105


BMF Novakane Black


XD795 Hoss Black


and for chrome I like:
Pro Comp 6005


Pro Comp 6047


BMF Novakane Chrome


XD795 Hoss Chrome



Help me pick!! and if you have any pics of them installed please post. Thanks!

If you are taking the Roushes off to put any of those on, I wouldn't. Plus, any wheel that has the fake rim screws really turns me off.

Only reason I am is because the chrome is peeling really bad on all 4 rims. Michigan winters ate them up

My plan is to powder them black once I get some new ones and then keep them for winter use. If chroming wasn't so pricy I'd just get them re-dipped.

The 20" 7005s have been discontinued for our bolt pattern. I vote for the Novakanes and then get you some blackened headlights. Good luck.

My plan is to do HD heads and tails

anything black man, your truck already has everything red or black...i wouldn't go chrome, it just won't look right IMHO. especially with HD head/tails...

I think I'm sold on the 7105s. I really like the machined lip on them. I just hope I can find some

if you're going with that style, i'd go with the 7005s. the machined lip would look wierd i think. not bad, but i think the all black wheel would look much nicer.

I really like them. I saw a member on here with the same wheel/tire combo and I really like the way they looked. I found the 7105s on Summit. Hopefully I can order them soon

should look good, just my personal opinion is all. guy at work just bought an '05 mustang yellow with black racing stripes. it has black wheels with a machined lip. just kinda looked out of place to me, would look much better as solid black.
