Ok guys quick opinions here. For some reason I'm just not feeling the white walls with the white truck and the white rims. Does it look like to much white to you? Please be honest cause I am really thinking I should try the blackewalls. Confused and need some opinions. Thanks in advance. My wife says they look ok but then again when I came home with the steelies back on and asked her why do you think? She said what did you?

Paint the wheels a different color, maybe a darker red to match the patina spots in the truck. With those caps u have, it will mellow out the red and give it alittle pop to it. Just an idea

I'm still running 6 luggers but getting ready to convert to 5 lug. I have a set of 15x7 but where did you get your 15x8s?

I like the white walls. However, I like a wider wheel in the rear.

bigguy69 · 01-10-2013, 10:02 AM

I like the blackwalls myself

Wonder if a trim ring would help brake up all the white on white.

Once I do the 5 lug swap I'll run 15x7 in the rear.

I probably won't run trim rings but I do have a set of the full size covers.

I think the black wheel with cap and white walls would look good. And unique.

I've got black rally wheels with chrome rings and caps and I'm trying to decide whether to paint the wheels silver or white. I personally love the raised white letters...
