You asked for an opinion, I gave you mine. It's your truck, do what you want, but don't ask for opinions if you are not willing to accept those from people who may not like an idea you have. Some people don't like the cars I have or what I have done to them, but the way I see it, it sucks to be them and I really don't care. I just dislike the trend of putting large diameter wheels on everything, and while 18's are not that bad, they are just not my taste and I feel that those wheels with short sidewall tires will not look right on that truck. I mean, at least it's not a set of 26's on an 85 Oldsmobile Cutlass with a lift kit, that just looks retarded! ( My 85 Cutlass wears 245 50 16's on 16x8's and is lowered, not lifted!) Anyhow, sorry for the tirade, I may have misread your post. You just should not mix themes on a vehicle as it generally does not look right. Let the vehicle dictate the wheel and tire combo and take the overall theme of it into account before making decisions about appearance items.
