Here is a thread http://www.gmfullsize.com/forum/showthread.php?t=220833 at another forum where members are talking about the red ring in the rim as seen in yours. Maybe you can get a better Idea of what would make it look better.

Post 11 in the link I posted makes a good point.

Also post 8 here makes a good observation.

Sorry, but the 2 shades of red, the gold accent color and chrome wheels as a package just isn't doing anything for me.
But, as long as your happy with it, that all that matters.
Maybe if you PTM the tan color to match the red from the truck, the rims will then compliment the truck?

In the link you provided they say the inner ring is removable....maybe that's what the OP should do.....take the ring out and it would look better?

Satterfield. You asked for opinions and you are getting them. They have been constructive and for the most part you've handled it well. No one asked for your opinion on their truck, so don't be giving it back. If you change your mind about wanting this feed back, PM me and I can close the thread.

Man that second picture doesn't look to bad if you ask me. I'm all about doing something different, I think they grow on you. I think if you painted the tan on the bottom red and did PTM on the door handles it would look MUCH better but that's me. Still like em though

Not sure why your trying to talk down on 4.6 Punisher's truck. Personally i love the look he has achieved. But to each their own opinion.

I don't think they look bad. But if it were me i would have done them black but kept the red ring. But that's just me i like when people do different stuff.
