i like centerline wheels for trucks. they build them strong specifically for a truck. many wheel manufacturers take car specs and apply them to the truck bolt pattern, a real no-no. i don't know how many times i have seen 20s and 22s busted on a car. on large diameter wheels leverage is at the max where the wheel center is welded to the rim. if it's not strong enough you'll be lucky if all it does is break and you tear up some minor stuff. roll-over is my biggest fear from a cheap light weight wheel.
