Default need help selecting a wheel!!!
I seem to be having the hardest time picking a wheel.
I have an 08 2dr Black Sahara (which i now regret due to me liking the plastic fenders more but cant change them )
i dont know why i feel the black wheels just dont look good with the painted fenders
I am ordering my 3'' TF lift and track bars as soon as i find the wheels i want
i will be going with km2's

I am deciding between the following...

Pro Comp 8179 (if i went with these i would paint them matte black)
Pro Comp 7105
Pro Comp 7005

Thank you for helpin out the newbie and hopefully the pictures will be able to be seen

8179's all the way, IMO. The others look like they're off a transformer!

I prefer the 8179s, but with more of a deeper dish (i.e 15x8, 16x8 or 17x9) then what's shown on the pic...What size are you getting 15? 16? 17?

I'm not a big fan of all the tiny spokes, so I went with 8179. However, I do like the silver rock ring, so that would be my second choice.
