Not much in between.
Rockstar Dually's and Nitto 265/75/16 Terra Grapplers.
Also panted the front bumper and side pieces body color
I don't think I have seen good pics of these wheels. They are too dark in most pics. I took these over the weekend. Dirty but there.

It pulls like a monster !! i'm impressed. Even before re-programing it.
Better pics of the wheels might convert some of the haters. Still have the stock wheels and tires to trade it in with.

With red center caps it should look cool.

Amen...powdercoat the stars red, little custom touch would go a long way since I see those wheels all over. The dually version is cool! Haven't seen a set of those yet:)

Interesting you might say that. I have a full set of rivets ordered to paint them red along with the star. The star is plastic so powder coat is out.
I'm actually going to experiment with powder coating the 5 spokes or something similar

EErr, I think I'd let Info jr. pick out the rims next time Info. LOL.:D
Rio
He likes them :D
Whatever I put on there it was going to be anti-bling. Takng the chrome off and doing body color or black.
I'll just enjoy my truck in private I guess. :)

I looked at those too, but I wanted to go with chrome. I went with chrome 17" MKW M26 dually's. Nobody had anything in stock except for Ultra wheels, but those look like wheels from the minitrucking days back in the 80s. I had to wait 6 weeks for the MKW's. I'm running 37-12.5-17 ProComp mudders on them.

Not my taste but,
Black chrome the rear bumper, there's a good shop in Nor. Cal.
Same for stars or powdercoat a flat black to match.
Ditch the chrome name badging, anything else chrome, go to black.
We have a lot of that going on in Temecula, trendy but better to go all blacked out than have a mix.
My neighbor has a Department issued Tahoe with painted bumpers, steel black wheels, no chrome. It has no stickers so a lot of young guys hit him up off duty about where he bought it from. Pretty funny. One called it a Metal Mulisha edition. Too funny.

I like it-though I like red trucks to begin with!!lol I think Red and Yellow are just two colors that people either love, or hate. From there, you have the black vs. the traditional chrome wheels debate. The only thing I would do to your truck is tint the windows-That would help how it appears with some more black to contrast.
....and I have been trying to figure out what wheels to go with on mine-I have the same truck you do, just white. I tinted the windows, and just need the rhino lining and some wheels-and that is where I am wavering....lol:D

Ah. Not my speed, but to each their own. They look better than stock! :)
Speaking of stock, time to drop it 3/5 and close those wheel well gaps.
Interesting how they closed off the inner part of the dually fender(s). My '08 2WD is ordered. Nice to see a red one, since I am waiting.

Those 22.5's are what I was originally going to put on it.
After more research finding out what it does to wheel bearings steering and ride the looks are really not worth it.

Not feeling the Rockstar dually wheels. Now some 19.5 or 22.5 billet Brentz dually wheels would look awesome on that thing. American Force also has some nice styles.

Black out the grill and it'll look better...
There is just enough sparkly parts on the truck to make the wheels look off...
... and get a red boat... :D
