I want some 20" wheels with 305/55 tires. I have a stock 05 Duramax (8 lug). According to Dieselplace.com, I can fit this setup with a leveling kit (Cognito). I just can't seem to find anything out of the ordinary. I want 7-10 spokes I think. What does everyone else think? What is out there? I am looking for websites. I like the KMC Backseat, and the Helo Max.

Cruiser Alloy Line...Kinda hard to find which keeps them unique. They also happen to be pretty inexpensive. If you like one of them contact me via PM.

I am also on thedieselplace.com. A lot of useful information over there. I have a Chevy Silverado 2500 HD Duramax Diesel with 305 50 20's. I have the Helo Maxx 8 wheels with Nitto Terra Grappler tires. I didn't have to touch the suspension at all. All I had to do was cut a triangular portion off the lower bumper, trim the air dam a little and zip tie the brake line cable back.
Here are a few pictures.

That is actually a really old picture. I have done more to the truck since then. I put on a Borla 4 inch exhaust from the turbo back. I took off the silver and chrome rubrails on the doors and bought a programmer as well.
I like the look of that emblem so that is why I keep it on there. Everyone has there own opinions.

I am on Diesel place also (Nunyadamn). I have seen your truck numerous times. I really like it. I am going to go with a slightly higher profile (55) like I said. Thanks for the info. I think I am going to go with the Dub Big Homie 8HD.
