Edit: I'm not concerned with the size for fitment issues, just concerned with the general curb appeal. And the Saleen's are the chrome variant (would look good with my black paint.)

Hey attworth, your welcome. That pic of the OEM 20's that you used is from my gallery. Don't worry about it, I'm just jerkin your chain. If money is no object and you don't care about ride quality, then get the 23's. But if not, the 20's are a lot cheaper for the tires, about a buck 20 per tire. The 20's also have more sidewall to give a smoother ride.

I think both wheels are great wheels, but the Saleens sure would be unique. I say go that route for that price

I was hoping you wouldn't notice. Your truck was one of the first that came up in Google Images. You should be proud.

Id def go with the 23's, they def look like they are easier to clean, the only bad thing is going to be the price, which someone has already stated but for the looks man go with the 23's

Don't rule out the Roush wheels, I picked mine up on Ebay for $1300 with tires.
