Out of those choices I like #1.
Go to www.centerlinewheels.com click wheel deals, pick your state, vehicle....they have some similar looking wheels at great prices and shipping is cheap.

That's steep.
Try Billet Specialties 20's won't be cheap anywhere, but these guys have a large selection and high quality wheels.

I feel your pain... I drooled over a bunch of those big-inch billet wheels, but just couldn't pull the trigger 'cause of the price. I think wheels are very important to the looks of a vehicle, and I'm pretty picky in my tastes. That being said, I thought that I might regret my choice beacause I may have been "settling". But since I have gotten them, I have been very happy-- They look great, and I still have some money to finish the truck. I got them off of the "Wheel Deals" page of the Centerline website for $169 each! They are 18x8 and 18x9.5.....
