Black wheels

I cant decide between a chrome wheel or a black wheel on my truck. I have a 2006 Supercrew FX4 that is red with black trim fenders. I like the look of black on this truck with red but need some pics. So if there is anyone with black wheels on a red truck please show me some pics. Thank you.

Chrome looks great with red, very classy

but black is more of a rugged look

depends wat you are going for

If you are going below 20"s I say stick with chrome. 20"s and above, black will look ok but I would still give the edge to chrome. What kind of wheel tire combo are you considering?
Also if you decide to go with black make sure you get something with a flat or matte finish...JMO

Hey LookUp.....

I don't have a photo for you, but I talked with a guy a couple days ago, about his bright red F150, which was completely blacked out.... and it looked great ! As some have said, chrome looks nice, and classy, but black looks tough. Of course with red, you can go either way.

For my own F150 though, I don't have any choice but black. You will understand when I post pics of it later :-) But it's all good. I like black wheels and bumpers on a "truck" even when their is a workable choice between black and chrome.

Peace,
Fish

Thanks man

They are the 20" Ultra Titan 6 (in black). You can get a pretty good price at www.modbargains.com, or search online and Discount Tire will match whatever price you find. I did that and got the wheels pretty cheap.

Here's a red FX4 with all black wheels (courtesy of 07FX4Chick)

well i definitly think that all the trucks looks good but i can see that i am going to pursue the look of chrome with black inserts. i think it would look the best for my truck for sure. now i just have to find some wheels with the combo look. maybe i will find some pics in the gallerys. thanks again
