Re: what do you guys think?

Personally, I like the black rim look. I like it with the rings. I'm going to do the same thing on my 85 K10 next weekend.

Re: what do you guys think?

I am in the same situation, I don't know if I want beauty rings on the black rims on my '67. I guess I could put them on one side and leave them off the other side. I think I may eventually go with the beauty rings since the truck is white with black rims.

The beauty rings looks good on your truck.

No rings & blackwalls. The rings seem like they are begging for more chrome.

Definitely leave the rings off unless you put chrome center caps on there too. But without the chrome center cap the rings are no good in my opinion.
