Black rallies with the beauty ring would look good...but if it were me, i would shoot them the same color as your truck, my buddy did that in H.S. and his truck was almost the same color as yours. Looked good....he added the same spinners mike has.

thanks fer tha offer, butt its not a 4x4 or a trailer or a farm bucket put them on the for sale board and somone would probly want em.

eric, the rallies i'm talking about are like 60's style vette wheels. wheel vintiques sells them in all kinds of sizes but not black.

i saw a 2000 stepside with a 4/6 a while ago that was silver with the factory wheels powder coated black and it looked pretty sweet. thats why i was wondering.

i think black rims look the best on a big bad 4x4 but i wouldnt say no to it. it would sure be different with everyone bling blingin with big shiny rims nowadays. there is a newer dodge(about 2000?) in town that is blue and has black rims, black gillle and grillguard, etc...pretty much everything that most people get chrome he has black and i think it looks badass! there was also i 4x4 i remember a long time ago that had everything black on it on the cover of lmc. it looked pretty good also. hope that helps
