Default Recommend a Black Wheel for 33s

Going to be getting DuraTrac 33x12.50x15. All i know for sure is that I want a black wheel and I dont want to spend much cause I'm going to trash it So please recommend a wheel. I'm not against using spacers, so steelies are all fine too.

What do you like? If you've got em, throw up a picture.

If you're going to trash them, what do you care what they look like?

The two pictures i get to take for the "Show us your 33's" thread

LoL. True answer is that i'll patch them up, repaint them, etc. So on the lower end of the spectrum I like to see whats available, what people like / dont like. I know a lot of them look the same, but I'm hoping to find something I havnt seen yet. I wont be driving around with thrashed up rims, i'll keep dippin em, or Bedline them or whatever.

mb 72s. Classic look, I love em. Cheap (100 a pop?), lightweight, and proper backspacing.

Steel wheels are my favorite. They are about $60-$70 each and you won't break the lip off on a rock.

If you bend it just hit it with a hammer and bend it back. If you get it all scratched up just spray paint it. Can't go wrong!

I have 15x8" Cragar Soft 8's. Pro Comp makes a nice steel wheel too. I am thinking about changing to the Pro Comp Steel 152 Series once I need tires again.
