Which Wheels for my truck? Let's here it!
Getting new wheels and tires for my Ranger, give me your opinions! I've got it narrowed down to these two.. haven't made up my mind entirely yet. Both 17x9 with -12 Offset, on 35x12.50 Mud Grapplers.

Here's my truck..



DC2..


Moto Metal 951


Thanks guys!

i'm not a fan of those blacked out styled ones. the current ones on the truck are the best imo.

Of the two, DC2's fully polished. Can you get all polished DC2's like you could DC1's??? I'm not a fan of either choice personally.

Dude you're double lifted, you need to stick with 10" wide wheels that have 4" or less backspacing

Those KMC wheels are pretty cool! I like them. I wasn't able to pull up any information on them in 5on4.5 though on 4 wheel parts, i wonder if they offer them. But, Shane, i don't think they offere the DC-2 wheels in all polished, I saw a new dodge with the DC-1 Polished 22'' on 42x14.50's, Good looking rims for sure!
