What do you guys think?

I thought about just buying refinished factory wheels for my truck, these ones come in black, which i want.
Then i don't have to lift my truck to get good looking wheels, cause these are the same size as what i have now, so they will fit the tires i have now also.

Well, the third biggest tires i can go would require me get different rims and require the lift to prevent the rubbing, but then i came a cross these wheels, and i like them, and i can go the size i want on them without the lift, saving me on my budget, for the love of me i can't remember that size though.

It runs! Works fine, just have to replace a part so it will still run after it heats up.. damned sensors in the engine. I honestly fire it up about once a month and take a little cruise with it from time to time! :-) Hell, if I ever find a financially stable job that I can actually retire from, it woudl be a blast to turn it into a full time wheeler :-)
