to black out or not to black out?

I have a really good deal on a set of black rims and new bfg at's in a 315/60/2o but i just dont know how well black rims would look on my truck. I will drop a pick of my truck and the rims and let me know what you fellas think.

I agree with the other guys. I don't think those wheels work with your truck. Nice truck

I couldnt find a picture of the actual rims I should have said that, the rims I am looking at dont have that big chrome center cap its smaller and black and the chrome tabs are also black. I dont need chrome thats for sure. I was wondering how hard it would be to get them teflon coted to match the truck?

Anything other than what you would have would be too busy on a two-tone truck. Just give your wheels a nice wash and enjoy that truck as-is IMO

Noooooo... not on that truck. But you should consider ditching the ugly King Ranch wheels & swapping to the chrome cladded Lariat 17"s



or FX4s.

The do come in sizes smaller than 20's, I didnt think that the black woud look good either but, I am getting them for a steal.I am thinking I want to get them and have them teflon coated green or gold(to match the truck) I can dig that. This all started when my buddy told me he could get ahold of the new alcoa camo rims but the are a small fortune! So this is my other choice and the are dirt cheap! I wonder if i could send these off and have them camo dipped?

Personally, I think chrome or polished aluminum would look best on that truck.
