rim suggestions
hello, i am looking to buy some 15" rims to fit my 32 11.50's on...i really like the look of the moto metal 951s but they start at 16"...does anyone have any suggestions...also the tires are gonna be kumho kl71s
Personally I don't like that "busy" look to a wheel.
There are two styling "looks" that will never fail you. Simple shape with round holes (like mine) and 5 spokes with a smooth rim.
As a designer I've spent *some* time working with the industrial designers at work. (These are the styling weenies who are responsible for how our cars/truck look
)
One of them worked for a aftermarket wheel company and he taught me quite a bit about porportition and "themes" when it comes to wheels and tire size.
The type of wheel you suggest will "work" with a squared body. Like a hummer. But a ranger is very rounded looking. So.. if you want a wheel that will look good.. gotta create a "theme" of that rounded and smooth look.
