Personally, I like them. I've never really been a fan of all black wheels on trucks, looks too plain. If funds come up, I'd say go for it.

you know my opinion.... they are over popular... get something else.. maybe some new bullitts from the 05 stang... but nothe craigers oir old bullitts, sorry man, I think some enkeis would look killer on your truck but I would run a wider tire eventually make it look more like it has a wider stance.

Hmmm... Looks a little too much like a street truck to me. But I really do like the wheel. It's your money, bro.

well Q there really not mustang rims the acully the real AR torq thrust II little different but simular and the only time I will go with a different tire size is when it gets the 5.0L

really my truck never see's mud anymore because i cant afford to keep having the truck broken nor do i have the time to go anymore full time college and working alot of hours does that to you. and about the $ i mean i could have them shipped right now and have tons of funds left just $800 for wheels at the moment i cant justify unless i get a good deal on them if i could find them for like $500ish I would by them at this moment.

here is what my buddy sayed i get his piont completely

it looks like you are very confused in the picture u dont know if u want to be a low rider with the rims and exhaust and all the chrome but then u dotn know if u want to be a off-road truck with the lights....

to be honest with those on there it looks something like a 16 yr old would drive

them wheels are very expensive. i was gonna get them for mine but i wanted 18/20 combo but they have to be custom made for those sizes and i saw that a 17 was carrying a $300 price tag i decided against it.

but do something different than the rockcrawlers since you dont crawl on rocks.
get some chrome wheels even if theyre wagon wheels it would be different

I voted to keep the black but only because I didn;t like the look of those other rims on your truck. Chrome rims would look good on your truck but they would need to look more like off-road rims
