I'm thinking about buying a set of rims for my 93 f-150. Its not flashy or lifted or anything really but 2 CB antennas, but I want to replace the rusty peeling steel blade wheels on it now. Here are the ones I'm considering: http://www.lmctruck....ll.aspx?Page=81 (of the bottom 3) Which ones would go best with the truck in your opinion? I personaly am leaning towards the polished aluminum modular wheels. But would they look to flashy on the truck? What would you go with?

The polished aluminum modular ones would be my first pick. They look a lot like the factory alcoas of that era. They wouldn't look flashy at all. Either those or the black wagon wheels, can't go wrong with those.

Nice looking truck by the way.

Thanks! Yeah, those are what i was leaning towards. I found these ones for a bit cheaper, but I think they wouldn't go with it. decisions decisions

these.... but i think you could easily get some flashier wheels if you stuck some 285/75R16's under it.... The more aggressive meats would help with flashier wheels...

I like the ones all the way to the right. It's the most factory looking wheel for your year of truck.

Have you checked Craigslist? Bet if you are patient you will find something that is MUCH cheaper than any new option.

Just a thought.

I kinda like the bottom 3rd one, those look cool and aren't too flashy

I'm not too much on black, I think it would look off. It has 265/75R15's on it now. And Rhino, I agree with you there, but I have been looking for about 3 months now, and I honestly don't mind a little over 500 for the rims, which considering what some other cost, its not bad. Plus i don't have to worry about them being beat up or the clear coat possibly being damaged.
