Ok, I dont get on here much, but I want some opinions...

my dad wants OEM 80's rally wheels, 15x 8inch front 10inch rear. i like.

i want torq thrusts, 17inch x same

after a 2-3 drop or maybe a 3-4 drop on our long bed which would look better?

If it's your Dads truck-Rallyes
If the truck is yours-TTII's
I think the truck would look killer with a 4/5 drop and TTII's, is the front end higher than the back or is the pic making it look that way

Rallys definitely look good on them with a drop...

I think we all know where my vote is right now

I love the way TTII's look...but it seems everyone has them.

Rally's look good too, but then again, they are popular too. I say get a set of 17" Rally wheels, with some nice centers and possibly rings and roll them.

You get the best of both worlds. I am not sure however, they make them in a 5x5 bolt pattern.

Everybody does TT2's for a reason, they look good on everything. So do rallyes --- tough choice--

people complain about TTs's being "cookie cutter" wheels, - but that really only applies on the board here, or if you go to shows . Out on the streets, clean old trucks with nice stance and some sweet wheels are few and far between, and that is where it counts if its a driver
