Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!

I'll be rolling on these except the wheels will be white and the caps will be 533 green and white.
i've been thinking about gettin some wider ones for the rear but I'll have too wait till i see what it looks like when its more complete.

i'm gonna wait till most of the body work is done before i finish the wheels just so they dont get all slopped up

Shawno I dig your truck but lean towards the white rims with those dog-dish caps. If you go back to Original Red then my vote is red wheels with same caps.

Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!

Stop you guys I am really leaning towards the black wheels and I know it's my truck but if everyone tells white is in then I take that into consideration. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice here so maybe I'll just start shaking the can tonight.....

I kinda forgot to post up some pictures way back when but better late than never right?

Here's before, stripped, painted, mounted & balanced and after.

It has that trim piece on the front of the truck now too. I think white looks much better!

Maybe paint them red, then white, then sand in some of the areas to get white wheels with red & black faux patina coming through the white......... Decisions, decisions.......
