Laugh opinions on wheels

So thanks to a substantial tax return Im going to be getting a head start on some mods I was going to this summer while working 60-70 hours a week. Body work (dents and scratches), tint, headlight upgrades, and finally wheels are a few of the planned items to buy. Along with go fast parts

I will most likely be gettin around a 16 by 8, and have been looking at KMC's XD series 795 in black machined. Really like the look of the black along with the machined metal.



What do you guys think? And if you have any other wheels you want to recommend feel free to. Here is a pic of the truck.

I love the XD HOSS wheel but IMO they just look better in a bigger size.

I would love to have 20's, but thats a few years down the road when Im out of college and have a real job. I could prob afford the wheels but the tires would tear me up. Do you think a different style would look good in a 16?

Not really. IMO those are some of the best wheels on the market. If I can get rid of the set I have, I plan on buying the XD HOSS for sure.

I was thinking the same thing. Fell in love with them when I first saw them

Yeah its 2wd. Let me check on tire prices, if they're reasonable not much more than for 16's I may do it
