I've been looking at wheels over the past week or two trying to find something I like as well as the AE 026. I've got it narrowed down to 5. Now I need help getting it down to 1. Then I can figure average cost, start saving money, and get them in Jan-Mar. :cool:

Well since I figured out what you did wrong, I didn't vote, but my choice is the Momo ST-1. it is the second one you have pictured.

 

I would also look into some type of Forged wheel so you do not hurt the performance of the truck.

 

Are you going 20 or 22"?

I'm going 22 :cool: Are any of the ones pictured forged? And if I don't get a forged wheel, how will it affect the performance of my truck?

I don't think any of those are forged. A forged wheel will be much lighter that a similar size cast wheel.

 

If you go to a 22" Cast wheel it will weigh close to 50# per wheel. A 22" Forged wheel will be under 40# per wheel depending upon the design. The Centerlines I have weigh about 35# each, which is close to the stock 20" Cast wheel.

 

A heavier wheel will affect your accelleration and braking. It will slow your trucks accelleration and make it harder to stop. I would highly recommend a brake upgrade if you go to a 22" Cast wheel or any heavier wheel than stock.

I would also stay away from any MB Mototing wheels. I just saw a set on a 2004 Ram, and they looked like crap. The clearcoat was peeling and turning white!!!

 

You really do get what you pay for.

 

I would look into this wheel

It is a Motto Alloy 22" Model 100 6 Spoke. It is cast , so it will be heavier, but it is sold by American Racing, so it will be a decent quality wheel.

I know it seems more and more like the style but I hate the rims that have the spokes extend on to the lip of the rim. I just dont like that extra material on the lip. Looks like the forgot to grind it off or something. just my $0.02!
