i went to Tire Barn (local wheel and tire place here in Fort Wayne, Indiana) and did some looking at some wheels for my Ranger. i found these wheels:

eBay Motors: FORD EXPLORER JEEP MAGNUM 300c RANGER 18" WHEELS RIMS (item 320130415602 end time Jun-29-07 14:15:47 PDT)

they are chrome 18" Boss 304 wheels and i can get wheels and tires for $1295 out the door. what do you think? ive posted these wheels on other forums but everyone says they are played out. ive never seen em on a vehicle perosnally. what do you think? yeah and i know they are heavy. i own a truck and not a car....

get_nick · 06-27-2007, 09:05 PM

if you like them, thats all that matters. they aren't too bad.

BrutalB83 · 06-27-2007, 10:15 PM

Not bad, I think they would like nice.

I've seen similar wheels around, but who gives a fuck if they're "played out", it's your truck and if you like em, roll em.

Blanco · 06-28-2007, 04:24 AM

I do see them around a lot. But hell, it's not like I bought a unique set of rims. Hella people with E36s have the same rims as me. I still like the way they look on my car.

Seany-izzle · 06-28-2007, 03:01 PM

hella?

They look good and i bet would look better tucked in those fender wells. Do it up, f the haters. I bought some rota gt3's talk about played out haha

eg6sir · 06-28-2007, 03:44 PM

Slipstreams are played out and you still see people rockin those.. on a car, no... on your truck, yes.. i think they'll look good

pissedoffsol · 06-28-2007, 03:54 PM

You should try to resurrect the old fad of putting really tiny wheels on you're truck.

Hold on a sec, let me make a correction here...

I like the polished alloy look over chrome. My boss had some 5 spoke 17" Boyd C.'s (no idea what model) on his S10 that looked real nice when he got around to polishing them again.

2000Si · 06-28-2007, 10:26 PM

I don't see very much of those rims here at all. There are a lot of big ass Fords with 20+" bling chromes and shit though.

Jeef · 06-29-2007, 12:07 AM

Check out centerline's overstock page. I got my dubs from them. I paid 720 shipped to my door. With tires from a local tire shop I paid 1370. They are polished aluminum and they weigh 21 pounds each. The 20 inch wheel and tire are lighter than my 17" stock steel rim and snow tires.
I think 20's would look good on there. Go big or go home. I sometimes wish I went with 22's because my 20's look small with a 32" tall tire. But on the other hand they don't make my truck look thugged out.

BodyDroppedNikes · 06-29-2007, 05:07 AM

thanks for the comments y'all. as far as small wheels on my truck...HELL NO!! lol my truck isnt a lowrider...its a bagged minitruck. ive got the stock 15s on it now and thats small enough. reason i am choosing 18s is because they are the best looking sized wheel for the Rangers. 20s are feasible to do but i would have to completely redo the whole front suspension on my truck and im not prepared to do that right now. so 18s is what im getting.
