Need Opinions, Dog Dish or Bare Steelies

My OCD is full throttle and I'm in turmoil here. Just added a 2.5 lift and 33x10.5's to my 15x6 stock wheels. Took the dog dished off so the tire shop didn't destroy them.

Now that they're off I like the look. Can't decide whether to leave them off or put them back on.

Looks a tiny bit more "offroad" without the dishes, but both look good

Probably a bit late for this, but I say put 8 inch wide rims, then put the dog dish back on. But, that is just me, and I like the look of a 15x8 rim

Wow. I didn't think this would be unanimous. Looks like they stay.

I've been trying to secure 15x8" steel wheels for months. They're apparently made of unobtainium. Wheel Vintiques seems to be the only reliable supplier of 15x8s, but their's won't fit over my disc brakes. I'm OK with the pizza cutter look.

Hmmmm, I think you have to get another exact same truck to have one with and one without. Sorry that's all I got. Nice truck you got there either ways.

So, what you're saying is, this Powerball lottery ticket I'm holding is a winner? :lol:

left side on, right side off (cheaper than the 2-truck approach) :)
(just kidding - another vote for dog dishes ON, all 4 of them)

Hey! We're going to be neighbors. I just retired and now we can get the FU@K out of CA. We're looking in the area between Dandridge and White Pine. From SC.

Congratulations! and WELCOME to the great state of Tennessee...you will think that you have moved to another country...I'm sure there are some positive things about CA...just never heard very many?
Very nice area.....it's about an hour from where I have lived almost all my life.
Good chance we can meet up some time in the future....

BTW...your truck looks awesome either way...and you have the option of presenting it either way....
