Those look great. Wow.
I guess you just need to make sure you get the offset correct for the truck.... And understand that the ride is going to be a lot harsher, the tires much more expensive, and the rims more exposed to curbs and whatnot. But, man, they should look great.

Bends, curb rash and tpms sensors. Have you ever had a vehicle with "rubber band" tires? Rides kind of rough
Well it turns out the wheels were 26 inch forgiatos with lexani 305 30 26 tires.
Upon inspection, they had curb rash, one or two were slightly bent (I took them to a wheel place that spun them for me and confirmed) so long story short, I told the seller I’d buy them for less than the initial price we discussed because he said they were mint which wasn’t the case.
I went ahead and bought them and took them to a wheel place that will repaint them in black gloss (which is the original color) and fix all curb rashes plus remove all the bent areas and leave them as good as new. This cost me an additional $1,650 dollars. I also need to get two new tires which I ordered already.
To my surprise, I am SHOCKED at how good it rides on Lexani LX thirty tires on these wheels. I drove the truck for 15 min with the wheels on to make sure they fit perfectly and to check the condition of the ride quality prior to paying $1650. To my surprise these lexani tires cost $160 each on Amazon.
Here is a picture of the truck before and after.
The wheels will be ready in about 10 days …
