Gunmetal Rims with Lariat?

heres my truck what it basically looks like now.



How do you think Gun metal rims would look with the black and gold? I really like these rims and the idea of 305/40/22 with a drop. (I dunno how much of a drop would make it look good either)



Im just not sure how that color combo will work out.

Nice wheel, but id stick with chrome or black... unless you plan on getting them painted with the door color code so they match.

And dont drop that truck! Its a big truck and it will look a mile long if lowered.

Im bias to lifting, but ill tell you 100% that truck would look 10x better with a leveling kit and running some nice wheels and tires, than it would lowering it.

Yea I plan on keeping the gold as for now. Black wouldnt be bad either, Im not a big fan of lots of chrome. Plus, my trucks 2wd, and Im really not into the lifted trucks hah. But I do agree on the color the rims.

I don't think the gray will look great with your gold trim. Is the wheel available with a black center? If it's not you could have them powdercoated black.

Angry dont shop at wheels next

Just Some Advice, Dont Try To Get Wheels Or Tiresfrom Wheelsnext.com. They Are In Miami Florida I Bought My First Set From Them, They Sent A Wheel With The Wrong Offset. When I Tried To Call Each Time Its Been A 45 Minute Wait On The Phone. Then I Just Got The Run Around. Finally I Raised Hell Once I Got A Manager On The Phone, The Only Way That Happened Was Because I Kept Calling And Dialing Extensions Untill I Found A Manager. They Finally Picked Up The Wheels, Its Been 3weeks Im Still Waiting For My Money Back. Ive Called 3 Times And No One Has Called Me Back. So I Figure If I Tell Everyone I Can It Might Effect Them At Least A Little. So Pass The Word Along..............
