Opinions on what rims to get

I am going to put a leveling kit (Autospring 3" front and the 3" block in the back) on the truck. I want to run 20" rims with a 305/55/20 tire but wondering what color would look best. I was thinking all black but not sure what that would look like or black and silver rim. Was thinking KMC monster, revolver, motto metal or any other good suggestions. Thanks guys for the help

i also wouldnt go with the 3in autospring, the 2 or 2.5 will do just fine

Black or chrome will look great on your truck. I like a lot of the Moto Metal, Pro Comp and KMC wheels myself.

i would go mainly black with some chrome or stainless accents

i think you hafta go mainly black b/c your rocker panels are black, and having the stainless accents on the wheels will go good with the silver and really make your truck stand out overall

make sure you dont get WL tires tho.... that will ruin the look youre goin for

The 3" front and 3" back wont level your truck. You'll still have a rake to it. Here is mine with a 3" front and 1/2" back.

Thanks! Im pretty sure its Pro Comp. I got it from the 4 wheel parts here in fort worth. It was like 35 bucks if I remember right. The kit come with 8 stamped steel plates 1/4" in size. I wanted to do a full inch but my u-bolts would only accomadate 1/2". I can get longer u-bolts pretty cheap but I think I like the way it sits for now.
