help me pick wheels&tires for my new truck

Well Picking up a white 2010 supercrew 6.5 4x4 Monday xlt with the max tow chrome package. Ordered the autospring 2.5 front kit and the 3 inch block for the back. Looking at putting 33-12.50s on it either in 18"or 20" not sure. I have all winter to find some. they r going to be summer rims. I live in michigan and going to be putting the stockers on in the winter. I like the toyo mts but open to ur picks found a couple wheels i like kmc xd766 diesel wheels. Not a fan of all black rims. It can have some black. Thanks guys

That sounds fair, I would shop around though. If you went with that package You just got everything for less than the price just a set of tires costs me.

Discount tire will price match - at least the few stores I go here in MI. With mounting and balancing - they were able to get me tires and rims in less than 3 days (much faster than I wanted - put down a down payment and they held the package for 3 weeks for me). Plus they give some warranty with option of replacement warranty - and free rotation service.

A look I saw over the summer but did not get pics were white wheels (they may have been custom powder coated) on a massive white Chevy HD. They may have been KMCs but the white on white looked awesome. If I find pics I'll post em.

I have dealt with 3 Discount tires alot over the last 15+ years - the one in Ypsilanti on MI ave., one in Dearborn off Ford Rd., and the one on East side of 75 across from Great Lakes Mall area (Auburn Hills I guess). The one in Dearborn is where I picked up my rims/wheels.
