Wheels that look good on a 2nd gen
Looking for a set of wheels that look good on a 2nd gen. I'm going to need some new tires in the near future and I was thinking of changing the wheels out as well.
This is what I have now. This pic is from early fall 07, so truck is a little different with some Bushwacker flares on it and also the fender liners are back in there. Just got it back from the bedliner place when I took that pic.... Oh and it's clean too... was the last time I washed it actually

I like the 3rd gens on a 2nd. I think the 3rd gen dodge wheels look great.

It's hard for me to pick a favorite.. Seeing them in a catalog doesn't help me out at all.. But I'm very happy with what I have now.. It's had stockers. Atlas 16" wheels. 17" 3rd gen aluminum wheels and now these Halo Max8's.. The 3rd gen wheels are fine on a stock truck. But it looked ridiculous with my flares on it. I ended up taking my flares off for a few months just to run those wheels.

I lowerd mine with 33x12.5's and have a slight rub at full lock. 35's will fit stock depending on you wheel backspacing.

I personally like the 3rd gen aluminum wheels or something with a pretty good offset on the 2nd gens.

my 16x8' had 4.5" backspacing and did not rub running 315/75/16's (stock control arms). These ones are 325/60/20's (35's and almost 13" wide) on a 10" wheel and barely rub the plastic at the rear when shoving a tire up and turning. But I also have 1/2" forward DT control arms now.
and btw, 18's with this style of wheel is pushing it. I definitely don't like this design on a 16" wheel. Size seems to really help this design.

Don;t like the 3rd gen wheels.
No on Classic 2s. They look ok on older 70s/80s rigs... but not newer stuff.
