Default 16x8 or 16x10????

EDIT>>> I have been searching for pics everywhere with limited success. If you have pics of your ride or a friends with 16x8"s or 10"s please post them up/

Good evening all. I have a 00 Z71 X-cab short box with a leveling kit and 285/75/16's and am looking into a new set of wheels. I am pretty set on the Raceline Renegade 6's but do not know if I am going to get them in 8 or 10" wide. I would like to get the 10"s because they have a beautiful lip and the extra width would really make them pop but I want to make sure that 1. they fit 2. they dont stick out to far 3. look good.

If anyone has any pics of similar wheels in 16x8 or 16x10 fitted with 285's I would love to see them. Also if anyone has any input on the Racelines I am open to recommendations/ input. I have seen them on more than a few Toyotas but not any GM's.

Here is a pic of the wheel.

Thanks advance!!!!

Staggered wheels on a 4X4?? Hhhmmmmm...any pics to support your bitchin theory? I don't know that I want to mount and balance every time I rotate. On the other hand it is not my DD. Thanks for adding another option for someone who is already indecisive. JK!

10" wheels are to wide for 285's and will stick out to far on a non lifted truck.

I am not against your opinion and have actually been thinking a lot about the staggered look on a 4X4 after your comment. I will only be driving the truck for fun and towing the race car (less than 5k a year). Do you have any pics of 4x's with staggered wheels? I am kind of digging it the more I think about it.
