Looking to buy some rims in the near future. either these 17x8 ion 179's or the fuel hostage 17x9 help me choose!

original



ion 179



fuel hostage



I am leaning toward the ion for the price of $484 shipped to my door, but I think the hostages look better. They are only $605 shipped to my door though. All opinions are welcome.

Thanks, JP

 

I like the 2nd one better.

 

I like the Ions better as long as you keep the chrome rails and chrome bumpers.

 

hostages dont look good unless they are bigger. 20+, too small and they look cluttered.

 

gcart- I was thinking about that myself...

rl-I am taking the chrome off of the mirrors sometime hopefully, but will most likely keep the bars and bumpers. Can you get a black center cap for the ions?

Anyone got a suggestion for another wheel?

 

i have always been a fan of lightning wheels.

 

on a lifted truck?

 

I gotta agree with gcart, the black wheels look to small. I'd go with the ions.

 

If you are keeping the chrome bed rails on, go with the Ions. I agree with everyone else, to pull off black wheels, they have to be bigger.

 

I like the second one.

 

Im gonna do a chop on lightning wheels, any more opinions on wheels. What other kinds would look good and not break the bank?

 

Ions IMO they look bad a**

 

The only thing I dont like about the ions.......they are only 8" wide.

lightning wheels

 

oh yea, lightning wheels ftw.

 

I like the look of the fuel hostage, but im a fan of the mickey thompson classic II myself.
