wheel advise
#1
Hey y'all, I'm a newbie here and I'm wondering where I should start when it comes to looking to buy new wheels. I have a 2000 Silverado 2wd rcsb with no bed, a flipkit giving me 6 in the back, and spindles giving me 3 in the front. I intend on keeping the bed off and potentially doing a pretty simple flatbed, with that being said there's no worry about needing tubs or anything of that matter. I'm currently only looking for rear wheels considering I'm happy with how my stocks sit in the front. As far the the rear goes though I'm looking for something a bit on the wide side of things to give me more of a street truck look. Thanks, guys, pretty new to this, go ez on me lol

Hitting the bed isn't your worry, it is hitting the rest of the suspension
IDK where you are from, but no truck that wants to look "street" has a flat bed
Start by looking at bogarts and weld, see what they offer and what you like

I appreciate the advice! I've looked into both bogart and weld, is it worth trying to pick up something used to save some xtra $$? As far as the flatbed goes, you're right and that made me think, I've never really seen any flatbeds I like that give the look I'm going for.
How bout keeping it bedless like some of those framebanger mini trucks? I guess it's all up to preference but have you heard of anyone going this route?

Only bedless trucks I've seen were under construction or repair. No weight on the rear leafs will make the ride harsh and stiff. Less traction will make it dangerous in the rain but you'll be shooting a couple cool rooster tails before you crash
