Would like opinions on wheel options

Happy 4th of July all. To all of our military members THANK YOU VERY MUCH for you service that provides our security and hence our freedoms!! God Bless!

I have 3 options for wheels I am looking at for my build.
I like to get some forum feedback on which looks the best.
1. DetroitSteel
2. RaceLine Wheel Blast
3. Delmo Specials

I had Chad (who is on the forum) put the renderings together.
He is fantastic, fast and accommodating. Look him up if you are in need or desire to have your truck rendered. Well worth the effort with Chad.
PM me and I will send you his email. Not to sure it is appropriate to post his email.

Thank you all for the feedback and your time looking!

I'd go with the Delmo's. The wheels compliment the side trim, black with the polished edges.
Killer truck by the way.

Re: Would like opinions on wheel options

I think they all look good. The Delmo's and Detroit's are about the same. Maybe if the rendering would have had caps on both it would be easier to decide.

Basically one has a polished lip and isn't steel. I have no idea what the price difference is between the two.

I don't think you can go wrong with any of them.

Re: Would like opinions on wheel options

The trim ring and center cap on the Delmo's make it. The Detroit Steel is too plain, the Racelines just not quite right for the rest of the truck.

Re: Would like opinions on wheel options

I would say delmo's, are the trim rings available for the Detroit wheels yet? I tried to buy some for my Nissan 20's a while back and were still behind on production
