Default help w/ new wheels please.

i'm totally ready to get away from the 16" factory supplied aftermarket wheels on my 2500HD 4x4. since i need new tires now, i figure its time to do wheels too.
i was wanting some 17" (8' or 9"?) wheels for it (i dont need no bling - its a tow rig) and i was thinking something in black. anyone know of some deals?

these interest me due to the price. $106 each right now.


i'ed rather have these cause they are all black:


anyone know of any better deals? used is good too. nothing on craigs list i like.

Don't know of any better deals, but personally I like the one on top better.

I think the top ones look cheesy, just the logos are a big turn off.

Definitely the ProComp's. A much nicer wheel design and color scheme.

I would have to go with the second wheel. It might help if you put up some pics of you truck (year color).

Check out MB motoring, they are sold through Americas tire, they have good prices on their wheels and I have owned a few sets and never had any problems with them. Plus they make some nice looking off road wheels.

The second wheel on the second set of wheels is sick looking. Those would look awesome.
