help me decide
Do I stay with the rally's and raise the truck an inch or so because of scrub line issues or put 20x10 show wheels on her with 285x40x20 on all fours. Forum member Low68 let me use his Boss wheels for test fit. What do you think?

Re: help me decide
They both look great! Either one will do just have to decide. I ran rally's for a long time. After i changed them out it took me a little while before I decided to keep the new ones on it.

Re: help me decide
If it's got a stock motor & set up for highway cruising I'd go w/ the 20's..... If it's got a cammed up at all motor I'd stick w/ the 15's

Re: help me decide
Both wheels look great, but I'd probably go up an inch with either one. I'd probably do the 20's if it was my truck, but it's not, Bummer.

Re: help me decide
Is your truck bagged or a static drop? How much drop is it?

Re: help me decide
I think if you're only going to take it out to shows run your big hoops. If you are gonna drive it regularly run the rallys. And raise the front an inch or so.

Re: help me decide
I have always liked the rallys but for some reason I really like the big rims on that truck. Especially with the stance that it has.

Re: help me decide
I like rallies and I'm usually an anti big rim kinda guy.BUT on that truck the big rims work.I agree with the rallies for a driver,bigs for show but the best of both worlds is keeping both and swapping depending on your mood.

Re: help me decide
Any reason you won't run a staggered setup? 8's in the front and 10's in the back?
338's look good!
