Which Wheel Should I Get?


Recommended Posts

Posted

One of these three will be going on a 2010 GMC AWD Savana with some off road rubber. The color of the vehicle will be the Pure Silver a new color for this vehicle. I haven't decided tires either but like the BFG AT/KO, Michelin LTX AT2, and the Goodyear Silent Armour. I am leaning towards the Ultra Marauder at the moment but I continue to waffle and my pick changes daily.

 

Any and all opinions welcome. Especially regarding aesthetics of each wheel on my particular Silver vehicle or quality of wheels from these three particular manufacturers if anyone owns any of these three brands.

Thanks in advance.

I guess it depends on the look you're going for. I like both 2 and 3, but I'm leaning towards 3.

Damn you guys are helpful!

Yep that would be the vehicle color. I do believe that may be the passenger van. Those wheels right there on the van I actually like BUT they are not available as an option for the cargo van.

Wheel not in full chrome....only the painted gray with chrome hubs. I hate that gray paint crap though it looks cheap to me. If I could order those GMC wheels you see there in that chrome for a cargo van I'd likely go for them.

 

I'd go with the Ultra Marauder

I am looking to create an off road look for the vehicle. All three wheels are truck/suv wheels by the way.

For an off-road look, the Ultras definitely fit the bill. The Mambas are cool too..... but i dont think they'll look right on a Savana

Originally I liked this wheel the best>>>>The American Racing Predator. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseU...&sort=Brand

But I have come to learn that it is a 17X8.5 and a 12mm offset and I do beliwve it will stick out to far for my liking and may hit the sliding cargo door. Oh yeah all the other three are 17X8 with a 25 offset which I believe will fit closer to my original wheels which are 17X7 (offset unknown) I thought the AR Predator provides an off road look that I am after. The Ultra Marauder is quite similar. I also am liking it. Chrome wheels on a Silver vehicle seem to look pretty good. I am terrible at things like this. Color coordination, aesthetics, etc...But I think the Predator or any of the other three would look ok. Even that GMC chrome wheel would look good.

I don't know if any of you have ever seen those stock OEM chevy or gmc gray painted wheels but I hate them.
