I was thinking something along those same lines. The white *may* come out looking "tacky". I agree that chrome would most likely come out great. Can't wait to see pictures either way.

 

I would go with chrome inserts cause you have the chrome bumpers then tie in the black on the truck with the wheels by painting your headlights and badges by painting them black and do white or chrome inlays.

 

Yeah, I kinda thought that too, well my fiance just "informed" me that shes either paying for the rims or for the tires for xmas....which both are about a grand...

So i think i'm gonna order the rims as soon as i can out of my pocket, then have her get the Coops when christmas rolls around...

Discount tire should be able to still hook me up with free mount/balance n all that if I bought all 4 wheels n tires there, even if it wasnt at the same time? idk, I'll have to ask 'em. This way I could get started on the wheel project!

How would you guys recommend that i "chrome" them?! Is there any kind of high-heat, or very durable chrome paint I could use? I believe those inserts are metal...

 

How about this stuff? VHT does not make a "bad" product, but how do you think itll stand the heat of being on the wheels?

It says you can use it on outdoor lighting? So atleast is sounds like its more durable than just chrome craft paint?

 

all black. looks better and won't look like crap when they get dirty.

 

Im not sure how that stuff turns out, but you can always buy a can and test it on some metal and see how it even looks first off then after give it a little personal svt4lyfe testing session and see how it hold up against the elements. Then decide from there if that is an option. Otherwise do some google searches and see what automotive chrome services you can come up with and get some quotes for them, shipping the rings back and forth would not be a problem I imagine.

 

I agree.
