Which rims?

[TrevorR]

Just picked up my new to me Raptor and it came with 1st Gen Raptor wheels and studded tires. The tires are going to need to be replaced soon but I have just located a full set of factory forged rims with K02s for a bit more ($800) than just new tires alone. Just trying to get some opinions on whether or not I should spend the money on the "proper" rims or just keep the Gen 1 rims and get new tires. Thanks in advance!

I personally think the forged wheels look amazing on magnetic trucks; that's the route I would go.

Those Gen 1 wheels don't look bad on your truck, though.

$800 bucks is a deal for take off oem forged wheels and tires for the gen 2.

I have been looking for a 6th spare and I have seen them go for $350 for 1 wheel/tire.

If you were able to wait and spend more green I personally think the 2019 forged wheels would look sweet as well.

Decisions decisions...

My post wasn't all that clear. Tires alone will cost me $1900 CAD, the set of 5 forged rims and tires (new, takeoffs), is $2700 CAD. so for the extra $800, I'd get 5 rims and tires which still seems like a great deal. I'd love the 2019 rims but we don't see a lot of Raptor parts for sale where I am so it might be a while and I really want to get the studded tires of the truck.

Ah, now I understand; that makes it a little more difficult of a choice.

I'd still go for the BL wheels for $800 CAD. That's about half of what most sets go for.
