Do they stick out really? I can't tell from the pictures.
Actually I just went and looked real good. They are exactly flush with the fenders.

Remington109,

I'm wheel shopping as well. Chrome is easy to clean, but a little flashy for me. Black doesn't stand out enough. I've been thinking about black chrome, or "hyperblack" chrome as some call it. Manufacturers are starting to make more and more of them, and they look great. The problem is that I haven't been able to find any to fit a 6x135 bolt pattern yet. If anyone knows of some, please let me know.

Well, I did a quick p-shop job with a couple pics I found on the forum. I kinda like the black.

Black wheels look good on anything, I think white letters would also set them off nicely. whatever you do nice ride.

I was thinking the same thing at one point nightranger.....but you have to look at the "flow" of the truck.

Mine for example. Black wouldn't look to good on my truck. The only chrome on it are the nerf bars, and wheels. If I have the black wheels like remington109 photochopped...the flow to my truck would be "gone", so, I'd have to get black nerf bars to maintain that flow.

Know what I mean?

I think black rims with the chrome ring on the outside and raised white letter tires would look kick a$$ on your truck.

Yea, you had the only decent side shot of black wheels. Had a heck of a time with the front wheel b/c of the grass reflection. Thanks for the pic.

I dont have a "good" side pic, but do you think you could chop those on my truck?

I'd like to test nightranger theory.

I think they both look good, your really not going to choose the wrong wheel.

Just pick which one you like the best after all your spending the cash on them.
