Question KMC Monsters vs Pro Comp 7005s -- which would you buy?

I painted my OEM wheels and was trying to decide whether to keep them or just say screw it and buy new ones. After a long deliberation with myself I've decided to say screw it and buy new wheels with my new tires/leveling kit (in January). I'm down to two right now: KMC Monsters and Pro Comp 7005s. (Or if you have any other recommendations please chime in!) I've seen many people on here with these particular wheels, but have never seen any in person. They are both so badass! If you had to choose, which would you pick if it was your truck? Also, 18s or 20s? PS-they are going on some 33" Toyo MTs, unless I can fit either one on 35s.

(I have a sneaking feeling that this thread will just confuse me more)












KMCs


ProComps























Thanks guys!!

Both are sweet! I'd go with 18's for sure with a 33 inch tire.

Both are sweet! I prefer the Monsters but my opinion is biased. Don't even mess around with the 18's....20's all the way!

Wow ya'll are fast, thanks for the replies and opinions. Please keep them coming!! Ultimately I'll have to decide, but since I'm doing this for looks it's pretty obvious that the most important part is what others think.

I love it.


And IDNC, trust me I've seen your truck plenty of times. You and zeruin inspired me to go the blackout route and I love it. I get so many more compliments now.

Tally: (updated)
Pro Comps - 4
Monsters - 1
18" - 2
20" - 1

do what you want, not what others want, its your truck, if you want monsters, go for em, if you want the 7005's ........

personally if i had the chance again, i would go with 18's esp with 33's

True that. Really, you'd downsize to 18s with your 35s? I'm guessing for a more rugged, offroad look?

I'd go with the 7005's, but that's because I did go with the 7005's, I just liked them better that everything else that I compared them to. But 7005's are backordered so if you want your stuff now then go with the Monsters.
I think 33s look better with 18s, and 35s will look great with either one depending on the look you're going for.
