ALLOY WHEEL HELP !!!!
Hi All, I'm new to this forum and landcover life. Just recently treated myself to a new 110 double cab pickup and I'm looking to replace the standard boost alloys, i want gloss black and I'm thinking on 18" over the stock 16" i like the bowler wheels, the over finch apollo's and the Kahn rs defenders, anyone have any pictures or opinions at all that could help me make a decision? my truck is in orkney grey.

thanks in advance for any input

thanks Steve E, I'm well pleased with the truck and the rack.....i just can't make a decision on wheels! .. is there any benefit from going up to 18" or even staying with 16" tyres at all?

I guess it depends what your main use will be. Personally I would stay with the 16" as I actually do go off road with my job and like the extra protection afforded by a higher side wall. I also very rarely go above 50mph as most of my miles are in country lanes and farm tracks. The 18" would be more stable on road if that's what you will be doing most of.

Nice rack by the way, is it a Patriot? I really want that sort of thing on my DC Thumbs Up
