I have 2021 lariat rapid red with sport appearance, coming from a 2017 rebel which had 33s on 17s. I can't decide if I should just put a larger tire on the stock rims or go to aftermarket. 20x9 or 18x9 probably no more than +18mm offset if I do go that route. I am having the grill color matched next week. so many options out there and they all look good, its like shopping for a TV, any of them will be fine at home but when looking at them all side by side its difficult. I have attached a few that I like but I am open to suggestions/experiences. Also, have bilstein 6112/5100 level kit to be installed at the same time

I like the first two personally. If you are sticking with 18's look into the Enkei Cyclones, I might jump into a set of those.

those two are high on my list as well. really on the fence of 18 vs 20. not sure if the red ring on the ballistics would clash or blend with rapid red. idk about exposed lugs vs not. just lots of questions, sometimes you just need to see it and that is nearly impossible nowadays

I will be the odd one.....that prefers the stock 20" rims. I steered away from the aftermarket rims after I installed the larger/wider aggressive AT (34x11.8 Toyo AT3's) and 2" level. The beauty with the stock rim offset (+44) you don't need to worry about adding flares to protect your paint IF you travel gravel roads.

your vehicle is my specific counter-wheel argument. it looks right.

I completely agree with you, I have the same truck in Lariat on order and I will be doing exactly the same thing. The factory 20” the sport package comes with are (in my opinion) a nice looking wheel and once it’s leveled with some good AT’s (KO2 in my case) it just looks perfect. Great looking truck!!!

Among those aftermarkets posted, I like the 2nd one - the simple black Moto. They’re cleaner and will let your truck grab the attention instead of an overly busy wheel design. JMO

i dont hate them at all, trying to get flush. I'll start with a bigger tire and see how I like that. I also prefer one of the first two, main differences are the center cap. Thanks for the input

I think the XD snare is an awesome choice.

I just get really tired of black especially being around wheels all the time, there are so many cool wheels and different finishes out now.

I think something like this would go awesome on that truck/color.

That’s a decent looking wheel. What does it run in a 20x9 +18 or +20?
