which wheels would look better? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

67cst · 06-19-2007, 10:19 AM

im trying to decide what wheels would look better on my truck. help guys!

crzngmychvy · 06-19-2007, 10:39 AM

That is a hard choice, but I would photoshop it first to see if that helps. You want to make sure you get exactly what you want if you are going to spend that kind of money (make sure they fit right too). I am partial to the gray since I just mounted some bonspeed huntingtons with gray centers on my blazer and I'm very happy with them. But since your truck is black I'm not sure.

The ones that are on it look the best, but the black ones would look best with your paint job

Bamm · 06-19-2007, 10:42 AM

I'd vote for the silver/gray ones..........

OLDIRON69 · 06-19-2007, 10:46 AM

I think the photoshop idea is best fo rthis one. The grey will look good with any color, black may be too much black?? Nice truck though!

ChevyDude · 06-19-2007, 10:48 AM

Wheels are nice but why not all chrome???

Thealien · 06-19-2007, 11:07 AM

I think it looks perfect now!

LOW DOUGH · 06-19-2007, 11:10 AM

the black ones

gkolmatycki · 06-19-2007, 11:47 AM

I vote for the black ones....Matches better

revn67 · 06-19-2007, 12:04 PM

my vote is for the black ones too!

BB72CHEVKT · 06-19-2007, 12:14 PM

I say keep the rally wheels maybe paint them orig. If you are going to change go for gray.

jkaylor68gmc · 06-19-2007, 01:22 PM

The lower ones

You cannot go wrong with either - but I am a sucker for gunmetal on black.
