help with rim choice

Hey guys,

Currently I have some 20" chrome helo rims on my truck and I have been debating lifting my truck for quite a while lol. I have now decided to actually do it. The only thing I dont know is the offset of my rims so i dont know if they will look good with the lift. I have nitto terra grappler 305/55/20 already.

here are my choices. I will be getting a 2.5" autospring lift.

1. Keep the chrome rims and put the nitto 305/55/20 on them and then get some wheel spacers.

2. 20" rockstars with the nitto tires and the autospring lift.

3. Do option 1 but paint my rims black. IF so, is it even possible to paint my rims. they are chrome but I think they have like a clearcoat on them.

4. Keep the chrome rims but do not do spacers? Wont this look weird? haha

Thanks,
mike.

check out my truck in my gallery.

Those wheels do scream "street truck". I'd sell them and go with an offroad style wheel and the AS kit personally.

I agree, go with some Moto Metal wheels or something from the KMC line. I personally think your truck looks good as it sits. I would check out this thread to get some ideas though:
