Well, it is getting time for new wheels. My dilemma is - which ones. I am either going to get the 18x9.5 2000 SVT Lightning wheels, or the 18x9.5 Boyd Smoothies II. What do you all think would look better. I dont want to get 20's because I want to keep the performance of the truck without putting heavier wheels on the truck and also I want to use my factory F1's.

I like the Smoothies II, but lots of people here are getting them. I like the chrome SVT wheels because it still keeps the truck not so UNSTOCK. Opinions are needed because I cant make up my mind. They are about the same price - SVT are chrome while the Boyd Smoothies are polished.

HELP ME!!! I am so undecisive!!!!

I think that they are both decent looking rims, its opinions. No offense but your rims to me look like import ricer wheels.

I have thought of painting the recess area of the spokes on the 03-04 wheels to match my truck, black. I don't know how it'd look but I thought about it to maybe make them look hollow from a distance. Just a thought......
