The link said the item was gone. Since you have 4x4 I would hope and assume that you are going with big tires, maybe a lift. I got some Crager Soft 8's from summit racing for my Explorer, they were 30$ each for a 15x8. I think you would need 16's, but just letting you know about a inexpensive wheel. Summit also has free shipping.

Those look like the kind of wheels that need to be cleaned a lot. I like em. I am more of the traditional, small wheel, big tire, LIFTED. But I like that wheel, on your truck you might want to go with a 32x11.50x16 AT little more cushion without being too large.

Here is your wheel.

Isnt that about the same as a 285? I tried putting a 285 on the front that i had laying around on a wheel and it looked good but rubbed the plastic skirt on the front barely when it was turned and if i hit a bump while turning it would hit the fenderwell also. But i clicked the torsion bars up a few turns since then to make it sit leveler, but who knows? I dont think there real bad to clean, plus its not like i got a big offroader on my hands anyways lol. And thanks c450Razy thats all im really going for is the red on black

I seen them on a big dodge and they looked great but after that I seen them on a truck similar to mine and they just didnt click for me.

almost positive 285's are 33's. i put 285's on my truck (98 GMC 2500HD) and i had to crank the torsion bars a little. now they will only rub while making a tight turn and hitting a bump when my plow is on

A 285 what? Most commonly it's a 70 or 75 series for trucks.

285/75/16 32.8x11.2
295/75/16 33.4x11.6
305/75/16 34x12
315/75/16 34.8x12.4

Take a look at my rims. They are made by Moto Metal. They are 17" with 35" tires. What do you think?
