Anyone want to post some pics of their aftermarket wheels...please do! I am more confused than when I started.

right now - these two are my fav's. These just looks kinda weird with that BIG hub cover. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I hear you on the BIG hub cover. When my new wheels arrived and I saw the caps I thought, whoa, we have smaller cereal bowls in the house! But once mounted, they're proportionate to the wheel/tire size and look okay. The size of the cap on the black and chrome wheel you posted likely looks bigger because the top is chrome. But I still imagine once you mount a tire it'll look right.
Shopping for tires and wheels is a mind bender (or at least it was for me). Offset, backspace, rim width and diameter coupled with some tires are sized in metric, some in non-metric . . . bah! Add to that the fact that not all tires come in sizes to fit all wheels and the whole thing gets pretty confusing real fast.
You might consider choosing your top two rims and your top two tires. Then see which combinations between them are possible. Could be that exercise will make your decision for you.

My tire/wheel combo along with the wide flares is a perfect fit (and that was lucky 'cause I sure didn't plan it that way). Flares and tire outboard edges are nearly identical.
37x13.50x18 tire on 18x9.5 rim with 4.25" backspace, -24 offset.
