What's the hottest best price wheel out now?
 
I'm tossing around buying new wheels. Tired of the same old things. I would like to pick up some used ones that were decent but I'm not finding any I really like at the moment. So post pics of the wheels you like.....

I love the BMF novakane :favorites37: but they are Way to expensive. I'm a cheap skate :D

20" classic ll ftw

Bigbluediesel08 03-16-2012 11:02 PM

Moto metals are nice, and the price won't break your wallet. How about Fuels?

Agjake11 03-16-2012 11:03 PM

Method racing wheels in polished 20"s

Bdons-SD 03-16-2012 11:10 PM

Check out discount tire, theyve got some pretty nice wheels I would consider to be "offbrand". kind of like the walmart of wheels ha ha.

I put in 2005 dodge 5 in lift. tried to get the specs of your truck best I could by memory.

X2 on the motos and fuels. 20" motos in black or like a black with machine can be had for 150-200 a piece. Mine are moto 957's 20x10 black with machined lip (now flat black lip after 4 winters in iowa) got them for $160/ea back in the day. I really like the new moto 961's in black, and comes with both red and chrome inserts so you can pick one or leave it all black.

I like my XD Spys pretty good :) Im not sure about a dodge though.. My boyfriend and I have been trying to find a set that would look good on his 2003 cummins so maybe this thread will help me out!

westtnfx4 03-17-2012 07:52 AM

I'll have to check these out:hmm: I have already had 2 sets of 951's and I've had classic 2's I like the spy's but I am liking those method's. Those MB wheels are priced right to :think:

06VT365 03-17-2012 09:16 AM

Yeah, the method split 6 in, and Standard in matte black look great too!
I went with the 957's back then cause everybody around here had 951's, kinda like XD Rockstars are now! Seems like everybody has em.

I was really wanting the Moto 961's, when I got my new tires a few months ago, but in the end decided to stick with what I already had.

Mamba has some good looking wheels too, never priced em though.

tdrive0001 03-17-2012 10:29 AM

Look into raceline wheels. If I remember right, they had some decent hoops on the cheap ..

Bdons-SD 03-17-2012 01:35 PM

Yeah, My dad got some MB classic type wheels a few months ago, they were so cheap he bought a set of wheels for my moms van too. I think I may look at wheel and tire packages from them in a couple years when my tires wear out.

Wow! you should buy toyo a/t next time they would last you forever at that rate! I got 80k outta mine...of course that was in about 26 months for me, I unfortunatly average 30-35k a year. :disgust:

Bdons-SD 03-17-2012 10:30 PM

Im diggin my bfg ats, my buddy had them on his ranger and they lasted him forever. course my trucks a little bigger than his ha ha. so far im happy, good price so all i have to do is wait to see how long they go ha ha.

westtnfx4 03-18-2012 08:03 PM

I'm liking these wheels alot :drool:

Bigbluediesel08 03-18-2012 08:59 PM

They look good.. I like my wheel too a big lip. That's just me.

Big'un 03-18-2012 09:16 PM

super black finish ones ftw

westtnfx4 03-18-2012 09:35 PM

They are $181 a piece. I can get the XD Hoss for alot cheaper. Also I like the Diamo's http://bit.ly/x4tNDJ

And the helo's http://bit.ly/wAi7Ra

tdrive0001 03-18-2012 09:55 PM

I did the moto metals too... gonna hang some 20's on mine this spring and put these mud grips on the shelf for the summer... I should get good mileage out of whatever I run doing that...

westtnfx4 03-18-2012 10:05 PM

What kind of tires you going to run on them 20's?

Stroked68 03-18-2012 10:22 PM

Heard good things on the moto metals and eagle alloys. Check ebay for the eagles, good prices.

jivarson 03-19-2012 10:38 AM

I personally like the XD badlands and the monsters both look very good put with a set of meaty off road tires

06VT365 03-19-2012 01:49 PM

I like those Diamo Karat wheels. But I think they need to be bigger...20" atleast. Neighbor kid has them in 18" on a Black Titan...Look good, but need 20's...jmo

Monsters are sex , i used to have sum on my f150 reg cab with 37" toyo mts

West also had a set on his supercrew f150

Bdons-SD 03-19-2012 10:59 PM

I think the monsters and rockstars are overdone... at least they are over here. every coller poppin kid has one on his jacked up pickup truck.

Big'un 03-20-2012 09:09 AM

Aint any monsters around here , and cockstars r fadn out

Bdons-SD 03-20-2012 11:36 AM

Lucky! They are literally on every other truck. Mainly the city boys whose parents bought the. A lifted truck so now they're a redneck and junk 'cept rednecks don't wear pink polos.

Big'un 03-20-2012 07:54 PM

:jester: sounds like your talkin about the northern part of our town

Looking at terra grappler unless I come across something else...

Bdons-SD 03-26-2012 01:25 PM

I was really happy withthe terra graps I had on my f150. They're a good tire.

Big'un 03-26-2012 09:40 PM

terra graps ftw

06VT365 03-26-2012 10:31 PM

I have heard good things about terra's on 1/2 tons, but not so good on 3/4 ton and up diesels. Of course that's the case with any tire seems like!

tdrive0001 03-27-2012 02:57 AM

The 20's are gonna happen. As far as tires, 305/50's in a true street tread have zero character. I gotta have something with a bit of grip if I get off the beaten path, just not the mud claws I got now...

Big'un 03-27-2012 08:51 AM

I got a buddy with a 06 king ranch lifted with 37" terra graps and. Thrmeyve lasted along time

crackerjack 04-07-2012 01:06 PM

hey west i'm gonna be gettin these, they are the same wheels you were lookin at gettin from craigslist just the red rings haven't been painted. they're $518 for the set and come with free lug nuts. also if you dont want 17's they come in plenty of other sizes. just search ballistic jester

westtnfx4 04-07-2012 01:34 PM

I love those jesters cracker.....I just don't know what I want yet. I'm thinking about black and chrome mix :hmm:

crackerjack 04-07-2012 02:22 PM

they make chrome ones too and you could paint em, just sayin. i haven't made up my mind fully either. i know i'll buy some and 6months later want some new ones
whenever you do make up your mind, if i don't have new wheels yet, i'll take your stockers off your hands if the price is right

westtnfx4 04-07-2012 06:35 PM

Cool man :peace:
