wheels (opinions and info)

First off sorry for another wheel question but ive seen some examples and i know about backspacing and everything so you dont have to worry, ive done my research.
First off which wheel: procomp 1089 polished or **** cepek dc-1 polished or black and machined.

Also which size for 285/75/R16 16x8 or 16x10.

Ive seen wandells pic with 16x10 and many other 16x8s and was wandering about the pros and cons about these sizes.

In my opinion a 10 inch wide wheel looks better. However, if you offroad in rocky terrian, the sidewall's of 285's will be vurnable to damage mounted on a 10 inch wide wheel. Personally, I'd go with 16x10's and 305/70-16's. The only reason I didn't was because BFG didn't make that size in 2001 and I just had to have a set of BFG AT KO's.

since I already have 285s and its possible that I might be getting a lift and larger tires within the next year or so 16x10s will be fine and treadwear will be fine.

I have lt 285/75/16 Cooper STs mounted on a 16x8 eagle 102 wheel I personally think they look good If I had 35's I would go w/ a 16x10 as for your wheels I like the polished dc-1s-If i didnt have my eagles thats what wheels i would run on my 02 screw

I ran 285's on 10 inch wide wheels for almost 60,000 miles and then sold them.

thanx for your help guys but i just now logged on and i ended up going with the **** cepek dc1 black with machined face 16x8 at 4wheel parts at memphis, TN for 610.00 for the set of 4 and chrome center caps and lug nuts.They should be in friday so ill have pics up friday afternoon or saturday. 3 weeks worth of workin summer job but its worth it. thanks for all you guys support and I was doin a lil wishful thinking on the lift. its possible but 600 bucks was kinda a shot to the head and bein a 17 year old highschool student kinda puts the lift and tires out of perspective. -Matt
