Default New cummins is about to be purchased... need help on wheels/tires combo?

So within the next month an 07 cummins will be purchased (p.s. with a $3500 rebate and green sheet a pretty much loaded CTD mega cab ram will run me about $39500 ) too good to pass up... any way, pretty set on a gettin a black one but I want some rims and tires that give the truck a "not stock look" and was wondering what you guys recommend... not looking to spend a whole lot but want a good looking set of rims with an off-road type tire that looks good but also has good streetability, as it will be commuting on the road more than off-roading... I really like the Nitto terra grappler tire as it looks like 4x4 tire should and also has good road manners but looks a little pricey, what kind of setups do you think would look good??? thanks for input!!!
