I have a 97 5.0 limited that im looking to put 20s on. The truck is black and will be lowered to achieve this stance.

I'll be running a 275/45/20 tire as most people do.

Here are the choices


1) Velocity Type 200--i like these a lot because they're different yet still a 5 spoke design. But i think they might look a bit busy for an explorer. The narrowness of the 5 spokes might look a bit odd on an explorer aswell, but it might look great.

2) Velocity Type 300-The spokes are thicker and its a much simpler wheel than the previous one. But I really dislike wheels with the visible studs/bolts in them like these have.

3) Rozzi Switch- These are an even simpler looking wheel with thick split spokes but might be a bit blingy for what im going for.

any opinions? Im leaning towards taking a chance and going with the first ones to be different.

thanks

I voted for the Rozzi's. Those are clean and would look great choppin' at about 5mph.
 












I vote Rozzi, on looks, and they look like the easiest to keep clean.
 






i say go with the velocity type 200.... i like the look... or the type 300 but im not a big fan on the Rozzi
 






I just noticed now that the Rozzi wheels are only available in a +10mm offset with the 8.5 inch rim. I was hoping to get closer to 20mm offset so the wheels wouldnt stick out as much.

I found these pics of the wheels and on the first explorer they definitely stick out way too far for my liking but on the sport trac they look alright although the wheel is turned.

The Rozzis do definitely have a really nice deep dish look to them though thats for sure

Forget about trucks for a minute. I'm liking that driveway! Holy crap! Are those outdoor tiles? :eek:
