Yeah I agree really need to see what color and what you have on your truck to make a good decision

Well whats the "future"? The near future, in the next 6 months or in the next year? Just asking, cause if you're not ready to buy them tonight, I bet you'll change your mind 10 times before you actually lift it...LOL It took me about 5 years and I changed my mind the day I ordered them

You say you are lifting the truck? Honestly, all of those look like street style wheels to me. I'd want something more aggressive looking.

Yeah they do sort of look like street but they have enough aggressivness in them to look good lifted. I plan on lifting it to 8" in the very near future. Im just having a hard time deciding between the last 2.

Keep this in mind, some lift kits have backspacing requirements and most street wheels have a lot of backspacing.

how does that effect the vehicles handling and performance

Wandell took the words right out of my mouth. Its not likely that street style wheels will have the backspacing you'll need with a lift. I'm with you IH8ATTN everyone with lifts have the same wheels but its mostly for the backspacing reasons. I'm like one of 8,000 guys with rockstars lol!

Yeah on here they may, but in person about 3 or 4 people per city may have ever seen them & its very possible that your the only one with the wheels you have. I'm the only one in my county with XD Monsters, never ever seen another truck with them & am commented continuously.

That's not really an issue if the wheels won't fit on the truck without interferring with steering and suspension components.
