What kind did you get? (link?)

.....Ive been looking at wheels for a while now and cant decide which ones to buy. I would like to go a little bigger for looks but not rediculously stupid big. My truck is 4WD and I go offroad every once in a while but not very often. I am usually just in town or on the interstate. So, i need a wheel that looks good but isnt too delicate so I can still go in dirt, gravel, and sometimes mud without having to worry about scratching them horribly. my current size is 16" and i would like to uprade an inch or two. Chrome looks better on my truck than black rims would. Anyone have any ideas?

i love these but i dont know how they will hold up offroad:

that looks like a rim that would get bent/scratched ina heart beat. I'd stick to an older classicstyle without chrome on it if your ever going offroading with them.

American racing has those teflon coated ones especially for off-roading. They look pretty cool too.

If I'm going to get rims, I'm going to get some that are brushed aluminum look, not chrome that shows every scratch or dent. You can polish the brushed so it shines if you do it right.

LoL. Don't get me wrong. They'll look great on your truck, and they'll look good longer if you keep her on the pavement
