Default aftermarket 17s on lowered trucks... Any pics??

Howdy!
I'm looking to upgrade the rollers that are on my truck right now. Don't mind the look of the factory 16s, but stepping up to a 17" wheel opens up quite a few more tire sizes... Been thinking about a set of the MB Gunner 6 in a 17x8 wrapped in Hankook Ventus ST 275/60/17. A 3/5 or similar drop is in the future also. Does anybody have any pics? Any aftermarket wheels really. I would just like to get an idea of what its gonna look like before i order something.
Thanks,
Kale

Different body style then the truck in your signature, but here is mine lowered 4/7 on my winter Denali wheels.

Both terrible pics, but you get the gist.

For a short time they were plasti-dipped.

Thanks! Want to get it professionally detailed soon though. Truck is now de bagged and side moldings taken off. I love having a single cab. It works as a weight saver vs double cab AND an excuse when you dont wanna take your truck as the one everyone carpools in!

Will be for sale soon though....

If you like the mb gunner 6 check out the ultra wheel badlands. We were going to put the mb gunner 6 on the 03 and ended up going with the ultra wheel badlands. They are rediculously similar but theres something about the badlands to me they just look bettee. They are almost exact same design. Just another option for you. Theyre both nice wheels.
