Default Wheel ideas

I just picked up a red 05 Silverado 2 wheel drive. It a reg cab wide bed. Looking for a set of wheels for it. Thinking 18's or 20's. It is getting a 2/3 drop next week. What are some ideas for wheels for the new truck? Pictures would be appreciated if possible. Thanks for your ideas.

I think my VHO wheels would look sweet on your red truck.

I really like the twisted vista II 6's by Intro, its finding a dealer and the being able to afford them thats the hard part.

Check out Boyd Coddingtons web site, IMO they have the best looking wheels on the market. Also, I have 17x8 up front with a 255/60 and a 17x9.5 in rear with 275/60's. I love the stance with my 3/4 drop. It gives the truck a hot rod look. The only down side is you cannot rotate your tires, even with out rotating I got 35k out of my last set of Toyos.
