I really like those 164 Pacers they have the correct offset too, i had to ask about the backspacing though so will see what they say.

I would go for #2. They have that classic look and will look great with a nice tire.

They're polished aluminum with no clear coat. Personally I prefer to polish a wheel than have to get it stripped and re-cleared down the road.

2 and 3 both kind of have an old school feel to me. I personally kind of like #3 just to be a little different. I see a lot of the hole style wheels, so the 5 spoke again is just something different.

Here's scott's truck with the pacers on.

Any one of them. All nice wheels.

Myself, I like 3. That American Racing is one of my favorites.

1. Looks good on these trucks. Kind of like an Alcoa w/offset.
2. Was stock on 2nd gens. Your truck isnt one. I don't think they look good on anything but a 2nd gen.
3. I dunno, I like em' but I don't at the same time.

If I had to choose, I'd choose 1.

I would go with #1 because the surface will be alot easier to clean and polish since there are no rivets to get in the way.

I have #2's on my rig right now. But I really like the look of #3. Just make sure if you get either one of the american racing ones you clean them often because they have a tendency to pit up and stay dirty.

MT classic IIs will never go out of style and look amazing (and they're polished)

Outlaw IIs are out of "style" and everyone has them

AR23s are okay but they're clear coated not polished.

I'd go with the new Black Rock Viper wheels or MT Sidebiters.
