Only OEM rims I would get are the 20" SS rims and would powder coat the black.

Im really a hater on aftermarket big truck wheels. The only wheels that look good to me are OEM wheels. Or at least I just havnet seen the right set of aftermarkets yet. To me, oem IS the right way, and doesn't look cheap and cheesy.

I would usually agree with this statement, but I must say that Boss 330s are pretty darn sexy.

Ok i must say your right about those wheels. Ive just seen way to many guys runnin cheapo looking bigger wheels that just look like trash. Those boss wheels are pretty "boss" though.

can get alot of 22's w tires for around 1500$ 22" tbss wheels are the most common and SS wheels but both look good as long as there isn't alot of trucks in your area with this wheels I'd get the tbss 22's but 1200 for just ge rims is steep to me u might also look into finding some ltz oem wheels


Also where did you get the adapters? And how much were they?

I think maybe the LTZ oem wheels your talking about are the same ones im talking about when I say texas style wheel. Theyre 20" in either painted, machined face, or aftermarket has them in chrome. They look good, keeping them as an option.

The adapters came with the wheels from the guy I bought the truck from. I dont know where he got them, but he just got them put on when I bought the truck, hes a local so I know him personally. I think he said he paid $200 for them??? I dont really know.
