I completely agree! I was just thinking the other day how I must be an old man now, because I don't care for most custom wheels, I like bench seats, and I like the trucks sitting up stock height or higher, haha! It took me a while to find a good set of hubcaps and these stock wheels. I want the tall and skinny tire look. I'm tempted to even go with the replica tires that are bias ply, like a Super Lug 9.00-16, but I'll probably go with a radial tire. I'm not sure if I can fit a 35"-36" tire like the 9.00-16 and clear the fenders yet, so I've been looking at 255/85-16, which would be a 33" tire.
