Default New wheel choices... help me decide

As some of you may know I wrecked my truck last week and destroyed 3 of my wheels so.. I need your help deciding on what wheels to put back on the truck since Moda no longer makes the R7s I had before. It is proving difficult to find a nice looking, lightweight rim in a 18x9/9.5/10 that isnt overly expensive. I would like to do 18x9.5 all the way around so I could put a 295/45 up front and a 305/45 DragRadial out back but most companies only make whole sizes (8,9,10) so I am thinking an 18x8 up front with a 255/55 and a 18x10 out back with a 305/45 or go with 18x9 with 294/45 all the way around. Here are a few of the wheels I am looking at.

Bonspeed Malibu (18x8 or 18x10 only)

onthe truck...


Boze Stinger6 (18x8,9,10)


Intro Pentia6 (18x8,9,10)


Boyd Genissis6 (18x8,9,10)


Boyd Timeless6 (18x8,9.5)


Ace Alloys T-1 (18x9.5)


Lets hear your opinions....

Sorry to hear about the truck man. Didn't hear anything about it 'til this post.

I personally like the Intro's of the ones that you posted. How about some Budnik Grid 6's? I can tell you that these wheels are MINT and he's damn near giving them away.

Those Intro Pentia's are just sweet!! They look similiar to my centerline stingray's, but everyone has these. Are you going with chrome or polished aluminum??

I think the Intro Pentia6s are awesome! I'm also partial to the Timeless 6s! Any of those wheels would look great on your truck!
