Default Question about RIM

I decided to get 35x12.5x16 tire firm now.

And the goodyear (gemini) dealer near my house said they will match what ever goodyear tire deal I found online. But their wheel price is way too high.

Therefore, I am looking for rim now. 16x8 with 4.25 o 4 inch backspacing
seems to be right size for me. Now I have several choices. Seems the most affordable one are blackrock, cragar and procomp, around 60 to 80 bucks each.

Which brand is your favorite? Also, dealing with rim, do they have much diference except the look and payload limit?

For the most part you will be fine with whatever brand you go with. There is debate about steel vs. Alloy but that comes down to personal preference. My vote is the Procomp.
