Black truck w/ black rims...pics - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

ok this is my plan to paint my truck black(already bought the paint) and buy some Black 17inch crager soft 8's and have the windows tinted about 35%. Does anyone have something similar to this so i could see it before i do it. I think it would have a sinister look to it especially if i lower it a little bit. Let me know what you think about this idea and post some pics if you have them. Thanks

wow thats a good looking truck...Lets see some more of them. Maybe a longbed if anyones go it.

i know there has to be more than one truck out there that is black with black rims.

Too much black....you gotta have some bling, if you're gonna paint it black. The polished rims with the black centers just doesn't do it for me. For those who like it, no biggee....different strokes for different folks. I just don't like the monochrome look that was popular in the eighties/early nineties. But, Hey!, that's me. If you like it, go for it.

thats why i was hoping to see a few pictures before i spent the money on the rims. Because they also make the rims i want in chrome but the black on black idea i had seemed like it would look good to me.

TTT. Does anyone else have pictures of a truck done like this. Possibly a lwb.

Not any of mine, but some of these are on the board

Just dont go too big on the wheel size (unless you really like that look). I like a large wheel, but 18-20's with a 2/4 drop look killer on these trucks IMO. Something smaller on that first pic posted would make it look a lot sleeker.

that "Jance Customs" LWB looks BAD ASS on those six lug steelies; the thin white wall really sets it off.
