Help deciding on new wheels

Thinking about some new wheels soon and can't quite make up my mind. Most wheels I see are'nt very appealing. I really like the lc 80 wheels, but lots of people have these. The other wheels been looking at is (desert rattler raton) 16x8, 4'' bs thinking black or all silver. What you guys think.

4" BS will cause the wheel to stick out a bit.

I like them both, but black is kinda "in" right now.

Based on the color of your rig, I'd do the silver rims. They're definitely not too blingy.

Thanks for the thoughts so far. I don't mind if the wheel/ tires stick out just a touch, def. not going more than 4'' bs. As far as color is concerned I will probably flip a coin, since I like both. My biggest hangup is whether to go lc 80 wheels or these?

I've always been a fan of LC wheels, or LX450 wheels. In my opinion they look very clean, as if it came that way from the factory. I'm still looking for a set of LC wheels even after getting procomp wheels...they are just difficult to find at the right price

I could'nt agree more, which is why I'am having a difficult time making a choice.

Check out desert rat website. The wheels are their own, or at least made for them. Look to be fairly strong at 3000+ lb load rating. Price isn't bad either.
