I also polled my brothers who are Dodge 2500 drivers with lifts and tires and stuff. They brought up a good poing that I thought I'd ask you.
Any of you guys and gals with aluminum wheels like these two here and live in a climate with a winter where the roads are salted and sanded. How do wheels like this hold up to that environment?

Besides for my minor scratches and nicks on the outer lip, the actual powder coat finish of the wheels holds up great.

7189....I just ordered a set on Saturday and hope to have installed by end of this week. I like the 7105 but I believe the smallest diameter is 17". I went with the 16" and 33s...not ready to lift just yet. I'll post pics once installed.

You can Run 33's on a 17'' wheel without a lift. A 2 inch BB would help but it is not totally needed.

The pole will close on Thursday, but it looks like 7189 is running away with it. That was my original choice (actually the 7089 was, with the chrome and black on the outer wall instead of just the all black). I'll wait until Thursday, but that's where my head is at now.
