Rim recommendations

So I am looking to replace my 20s when the tires wear out shortly and I wanted to get a nice pair of 18s that I can throw larger tires on but I wanted a pair of rims with an offset so I didn't need to buy spacers and have that aggressive look. I already have bilstens 1.75 up from with a 1inc spacer in the rear I'll probably do a 3inch lift or change the front to 2.25 to max the shock and raise the rear to 1.5 spacer. Anyone recommend a good set of rims to give me that aggressive look?

Generally speaking just find something with a 4.5” backspacing and the correct bolt pattern. Beyond that it’s personal preference.

Honestly options seem limited unless you want the same look as every other modified truck and suv on planet (black and/or fake beadlocks).
 
If you are looking to get larger tires 18s will be expensive and size limited. 17s will give you most options and at the best prices.

Go on tirerack and check out the prices and options.

As for style that is all you. Rims are a fashion item plain and simple. I like my stock '17 TRDORP (black inlays) and have no plans to swap them out. We also have a '15 limited with the 20in black inlay rims and we like them.

17" rims on a Limited

He's right. Go with 17" rims.

I will be selling my 2015 Trail Edition, 17x7.5" wheels and stock tires by the first of the year. I'm getting 17x8.5 ICON wheels so I can mount 285/70/17 wider and taller tires. The tire manufacturers recommend an 8" to 9" rim for that size. The SCS Stealth 6 17x8.5" wheels also looks good to me and they are very lightweight, which is good for reducing the unsprung weight, preserving power and braking.

I'm in So Cal and you're in Florida, so buying my wheels and tires may not be a good option for you. Shipping cost would be prohibitive.
 
Here's what I recently went with. 17x9 with -12mm offset. With the stock 265s it gives me a more aggressive look and no rubbing. I will update to 285s once these wear out and I lift the rig.

Maybe I need to ask my question in a different way. I like my current rims I just don't want to put 1.25 wheel spacers to give them that more aggressive look. I don't mind getting 17inc instead of 18 but what would I be looking for on the rim purchase to have them stand out from the sides more.
