I wouldnt bother painting the rivets/bolts unless you get powder coated or get black replacement ones

i even sanded mine and it still came off with a hose spraying on it

As Mblouir mentioned in another post, i think they add a nice "pop" to the wheel especially with chrome lugs




they do look pretty good painted black though lol

Yea I saw them in person as well. Even if they were on the truck I didn't like the fact what they look like up close.

Yea I might paint the 7005 bolts black as well. As long as its not going to chip etc.

Lol nevermind then it looks like I won't paint them haha. Easier to leave them alone rather than to deal with any headaches. Jeez I LOVE the Toyo mud terrains... just not sure if they will be economical for being a work truck. I drive all day house to house clenaing pools and think the Nitto TG's will keep my MPG a little better.
