Which rims would you say look the best??

Hey guys. I have a question I'm gonna be buying new rims in about 2 months and really can't decide which ones to pick. I'm gonna be running a 6" Pro Comp stage 1 and 35x12.5x18.

Pro Comp 7005's in Flat Black

Eagle 197's

Moto Metal 951

Which ones do you think?

My truck's a crewcab/shortbox and it's silver, the one in the sig i guess, duh.

With your truck being silver and having chrome bumpers and accents, I'd say probably:

1 - Eagles
2 - Moto
3 - ProComp (That rim is pretty sweet, just think flat black wouldn't match the look of your truck)

I personally like the eagles. I just don't really like the all black wheels on silver trucks for some reason. Just my own personal preference though....

Thanks for the opinions so far. Thats what I was thinking too about the Pro Comps because I love the rim, but it's just I don't think it will look good on my truck. I was thinking the eagles would be my best choice too. But any other opinions would be nice still.

A hyper black wheel would look really good with your color plus they're cheaper and not everybody has them.

The Eagles look more street, and when you think of "lift" you usually think off-road. However, the design and the contrast of the silver and black is very appealing and the silver would tie in with your bumpers rather nicely.

To me the 951s are just too common, I've seen a number of people who have them or has had them. I'm the type of person who can't stand when I see someone with the same thing that I have, but that's just me.

I will not be able to give an unbias opinon on the 7005s because I ordered them, and I think that they are one of best looking rims out there. I'm partial to anything flat/matte black, the positive to negative space ratio is perfect for my taste, the silver lugs and accents around the lip provide the right amount of contrast without being too overbearing, and the 7005s simply look like a real nice off-road wheel that provides both ruggedness and a great sense of style.

I agree with what most have said already.....the 7005s are beautiful but wouldn't go well with your chrome. Ultimately it will be your decision. Not to make that decision any harder, but I have another suggestion. I recently picked up some 20" Black Monsters and while I was at the place getting them put on I saw the Monsters in chrome. If I had a touch of chrome on my truck I would have gone with them.....they were SWEET. I'm trying to convince my buddy to get them for his F-150 now. Not to mention I don't recall ever seeing anyone with the chrome Monsters on their truck here. You see lots of the black, but no chrome. I think it would look awesome. Got mine at Rim Zone.








Took this pic and sent it to my buddy while I was there:
