Ok so for the longest time now I swore that I wouldnt change the rims on my truck but im tired of having like 3 tire options for my 14's and because I work for Firestone I can get any tire I want for pennies on the dollar.Im not as concerned about the tires I want but more concerned about rims that will look good and fit right. 90 percent of my truck has dark accents ( bug guard, rain guard's, tonneau, tinted lights,and tint) i was thinking somthing black or with some kind of black accent (try to keep the theme going on the truck). I intend on running a 235/75/15 tire. I might even go with a nice stock alloy like this like the one in the pic I attached ( those are 16's but im cool with that). So give me honest opinions and suggestions, i attached a pic of my truck too.

Great pick 08RangerSport,I was actually looking into the Soft 8's. They are very simple and nostalgic. I was thinking maybe Soft 8's but instead of using their center caps Id use my oe ones. Hurley- i know you mentioned Pro Comps and AE's, do you have a pic of what you have in mind? Ive had my ups and downs about what I like and dislike. I dont wanna be that guy that has the truck that he thinks is totally awesome but everyone else thinks its looks like garbage.
Thats actually 100% perfect. What size tire are you running? And whats everyone's opinions on alloys? Im really liking Black mamba's rig.
Not mine lmao.. That's the guy I sell all my old stuff to. Lol those are my first rims sitting on 31 inch tires. His is a 2wd with a 2 inch lift.
Ah I see now. Looks awesome. im looking to get out of my stock 14's and for somthing that isnt flashy, i see people all the time that live by chrome or their rims cost so much that instead of having 1 wheel lock on every wheel all 5 lugs on every wheel have a different wheel lock lol.
I'd say definitely go with some black rims but I just love black rims so im biased haha here's what I got, I think they're pacers I got mine secondhand and I think ones a bit bent but if I ever get new ones I'll probably buy a new set of these. I'm pretty sure theyre call pacer daytonas
anything but black, my god. Get some nice polished aluminum rims. I am a fan of the large hole rims. I dont get why everyone and their mother is all about the soft 8's in black steel. Guys run those becuase they are HEAVY wheelers and when they bend/brake a rim, it only cost $30 to buy a new rim. ITS NOT A FAD!!!!
Awhh dang, now my head is spinning. A kid I graduated hs with told me to put 17's on it and i swore they would look funny but I like your setup.
They may be a bit big if you've got a two wheel drive... I can't remember if you have a 4x4 or not lol
Yeah with no trouble. Could easily have put on 31's im sure. Nah I Just like how they look. Even if I'd kept my stock rims I was gonna paint them black just cause I think it looks better on a lot of trucks than polished unless you have a chrome theme goin.
Yea its 2 wheel stock suspension. I dont really have intentions on lifting it. Ive got some peformance work done so Im sure it would have no issue turning them but somthing about the 17's might make mine seem a little out of proportion.
