Re: Opinion on new wheels

I like the original look on our trucks but those rims work on your truck and I think it looks great either way. As has been said, do what pleases you.

Re: Opinion on new wheels

They look good. I like them both equally. I'd say keep it fresh with a spring/summer set and a fall/winter set!

Re: Opinion on new wheels

I would have gone with a little more rubber, but love the look overall

Re: Opinion on new wheels

I like them both - concur with redneck perhaps a little more rubber on the mags (for this truck). If someone held a gun to my head and made me pick, I'd go with the steelies and use the mags for the project you got them for. But they do both look very nice on your truck.

The originals look cool. The red changed to black might look good...

I like how the originals look, but you can't go wrong with either one.

Re: Opinion on new wheels

I like both also... but....

1. Original wheels should be white to match the roof.
2. New rims need more rubber.

thats my .02 cents... no refunds or exchanges...
