what do you guys think about these wheels for my truck....
ok guys, im looking at weld racing RTS-S71 wheels, which is somewhat kinda like a modern Pro Star wheel. Heres a pic of the wheels. Id get them in a 15" size with 15x4 or 5s up front and 15x10s out back
 Heres another pic on a newer mustang just as an idea on a vehicle how they look

Re: what do you guys think about these wheels for my truck....
Wheels would look sweet. I don't think you would want to go less that 15-7 in front. Remember its a truck not a pony car. As far as I see the 15" tire is becoming out of date and tires are becoming scarce.
I have 15-3.5 on the front of my cuda and I have no clue what I'm going to do for that. |

Re: what do you guys think about these wheels for my truck....
That would look great, IMO. I like the wheels you have on there, though. It's a toss up.

I like the welds, They'll look good, BUT I wouldn't change a thing on it. I love the rims you have now!
