Can't say that I'm a fan of multi spoke wheels like that for a truck. They look good on a BMW, Lexus and Accords though. You would be better off sticking to a 5 or 6 wide spoke type wheel. Foose Spanks are one of my favorites and there are other wheels that are very similar.

As usual, I'm the odd man out. I think that it could look great. But not with the knockoffs -- a conventional center cap would seem more appropriate.

At least they are not the same old ghetto chrome wheels that most get.

BTW -- these Hallibrand knockoffs are really five-spokes -- it's just that the spokes are hollowed out.

No knockoffs, and match paint the center with your L. Polished outerlip.

The polished ones look better than the other ones.
But don't know how they will look on an L...

I like um. Paint the center to match the color of your truck.

Hell no one like the idea of powdercoating the stock wheels white till I did it.
