I thought my tires would be up by December. Seeing as how my tires are like 800-900 dollars I'm going to trade my current wheels in for some extra cash and just swap back to 18" wheels.

Here's where I need help. My guy has a set of the 1 LT wheels with new tires for $600 (another customer is selling them through him). So that's a quick saving plus extra money from my trade in. Or...I'm looking at a few wheels mainly these:

Drag Dr-37

Elbrus I08 (in black or silver)


Axis sport XMX


Or ANDROS Spec D


They are all within in a pound or two of the 1 LT wheels. The ANDROS wheels are actually 2.5 lbs lighter.

Given my budget of $900 plus trade in plus $100 for my birthday I estimate a total budget of around $1400 so I can afford all of these plus tires. What do you guys think?
I really like the third and fourth wheel options. So are you going to be going with 18" wheels?

Really? I personally really like how the 1LT wheels look. With a drop, they look pretty good to me
