Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?

I settled on two finalists. I'm not a huge fan of the fake beadlocks, but it is a subtle modern touch and you pretty much can't get a wheel without it anymore.

My first pick was the Method Standard in a 16x8". This is a modern play on the wagon wheel. I was even thinking about getting them powdercoated white to match the white wagon wheels (which I think would be a GREAT idea for someone). They do offer this in an 8x6.5, 16x8 with 0 backspacing. These are a good buy online for ~160/wheel.



Number 2 was the American Racing Ansen off-road AR969. They offer this in a 16x8 0 backspacing 8x6.5. The black windows are pretty sweet I think. I found these online for $150/ea + free shipping and no tax.



I settled on and just order the Ansens. I'll post a pic when they are on.

Both of these look good. Two that I was looking at also
