Steel rims would be heavy, but no heavier than the steel 20in "spare" wheels on new pickups. This look would be more authentic, and cheaper in the long run IMO.

don't know about cheaper.. you seem to forget as you compare new truck steel 20" rims to use on an older truck that the new trucks have much bigger braking system in place..
it's going to be like putting 35" mudders on it. and try'n to stop quickly.. the brakes don't like it..
