Smokestone wheels

Hello, I have an 06 smokestone screw and am planning on putting a 4" lift on. Now Im trying to decide on what rim tire combo to use. I think I have settled on 20 x 9 chrome wheels, since I have the chrome bumpers. And I was planning on running Trail Grapplers, but now I may be leaning toward Toyo Open Country MT's. I know the final decision is mine, but any sugestions or pics of other smokestone with aftermarket wheels would be greatly appreciated and helpful. I'll try and post a pic of my truck here but if I cant there are some in my profile. Thanks in advance for any help.I also have a chrome bullbar and Pia fogs that werent on yet in that pic.

Sounds like you have a great plan in mind. Have heard the toyo mts are heavy but get great wear mileage, have heard around 50k. The nitto trail grapplers are also highly rated around here and most have said around 40k miles out of them. I would go with whichever tread pattern you like best or the better deal, don't think you can go wrong with either of those tires. You looking at 35s?

Yeah 35x12.5's. The problem is since they only made smoke stone for 1 year there aren't alot of pics of other trucks that color especially lifted trucks

With the smokestone color + having chrome bumpers I would stick with a chrome wheel. Nice looking truck!

I'm not looking for someone to tell me what to like, but getting sugestions from other people can sometimes help. By the way why would you want me to have the same wheels as you dream of having.

I think the XD Monsters in Chrome would look good on your truck.
I have had Toyo MT's on my truck for over 3 years now and my first set lasted 55,xxx miles and they weren't completely bald yet. Just be sure to rotate them.

Thanks for the advice. i used to like the chrome monsters, but after seeing so many people with them, i got turned off from them. I would like to find a wheel thats cool, but not overly used. I actually like some of the Fuel wheels and the Bps wheels.

How many times have you seen the chrome Monsters on a F150 in person? My wheels (Fuel Hostage) are all over the internet, but I have only seen 2-3 trucks with them locally. The local trucks with them weren't F150's.

Another wheel I think would look really good is a ProComp 6005

This is Alamobiker's truck found on a Google search.


The Hostages in chrome would look good too.

Those are my suggestions. Good luck, it can be a hard decision.
