I’m getting a list of shit I want to get when I get my truck and I’m looking for wheels and tires.

I’ll be probably doing a 2.5 level and I’d like 18-21 inch wheels, 35" tires and bolt-on looking fender flares. Any suggestions? Max budget is around $2,000 for wheels+tires.

The truck will look pretty similar to this one.

I’m not a huge fan of the design, but I like Method wheels in general.

Unconventional choice but Jeremy’s sports Land Rover looked awesome on the OZ superturizmos. Maybe look at a sporty wheel design instead of the usual truck style wheels.

I still don’t believe you’re getting a truck. This is all a sham, folks.

No flares and don’t go too big on the tires. It’s amazing how sluggish it makes a truck without a re-gear.

Sell your 1500 truck, then buy a 2500 so you can put AEV wheels on it.

Specifically these ones.

I like the stock look with maybe a bit more tire.

Not for $2000. You be $3000 minimum for 18"-21" wheels & 35" tires.

I’m exploring outside of my normal realm of VAG and I think slightly lifted trucks look nice.

To each his own.

FWIW, if you’re going with larger tires, I think 18-19" wheels will look better. Low profile off road tires look strange in my opinion. Also, you’ll save weight that way.

Wait. Have we slipped into an alternate universe where you actually bought a truck?
