My wheels are done!
Daylight Photos.
Got a Doctors appt. this morning so I get to go in late! HaHa. Snapped some pics really quick. Truck is very dirty from the rain last night. Enjoy! -Mat-




Thanks for the kind words guys. I am sorry the rest don't like em but to each his own.
I like them a lot and that is all that really matters.
I payed $50 a wheel to get sandblasted!
They said the stock ones have powder paint under the clear and it took a while to break thru. I paid $50 a wheel for the powder paint and $25 to clear poweder em. Which I thought was dirt cheap. So for $500 I got a nice looking setup. Beats spending thousands and I think it looks better.

I love the look. The dark metalic look. The gunmetal, or whatever color you wanna call it. Its still pretty uncommon.
In my opinion chrome looks good on some cars/trucks, but not everything. And its about as rare as a tribal tattoo. Nothing like expressing yourself by getting something everyone else has.

Nice looking.
If there is one thing I CANNOT STAND is Chrome on a car.
the hideous thing that ever went on a car.
Second on my list is Wood accented interior.
I know you blasted and power coated them,
Have you ever heard of POR-15?
www.por-15.com
I use this stuff on everything. It stops rust, goes on with a brush, is self leveling paint so it looks smooth as hell and you cannot scrape it off with a screwdriver.
I was thinking I have alot left over from doing the undercarriage of my '69 stang. I could do the rims on my truck, not to copy you, but I think it will hold up to chips as good as powder coating.
IMO: Chrome is FRICKING UGLY on a Car, Truck, Anything!

Matt, They look great in my opinion and really set the truck off. I thought of doing the same, but a bit lighter, I guess somewhere between stock and gun metal, for 500.00 you really can't beat it.
