i currently have the factory Offroad package Alloy Wheels.... and i saw a few guys paint their wheels, but no one i have noticed has painted any of the alloy ones, i do understand they are the more expensive ones thought

heres my question
1) yey or ney or painting them at all?
2) if yes ^^ what do u think about black?




and 3) opinion of black rims on a white ranger? (probably steel)

 

I'm not a fan of the black wheels, but I am uber bored at work so I did this for you because I just started playing with PSP9:

 

sell them and buy some black wheels
if you off road the paint will scratch off - unless you powercoat or bake in on in some manner
IMO just not worth it - better to sell those and use the money for from the factory blacks

 

Ya get some black steel rims for sure, and man that is one huge flex!!!

 

hahaha thanks
it was just a small creek bed, and while in it learned i can over power my e-brake in 4low hah



i was rubbin fender lol

 

aight guys, thats what i was thinking lol i got really bored.., i was looking to replace one, and it was an ungodly amount, i think they go for like, 2-250?!

i found some cragar's for like 50-60 each

 

Black Rims on White Rangers looks absolutley amazing, one of the best combos imho. Also thank you for teaching me that, I didn't know that the rims that came on my '00 were from an offroad package. I don't have the offroad package on my truck though, just a plain XLT model, interesting. I would say go ahead and paint them, it would look different, maybe a little redneck to other Ranger owners but hey.

 

haha, i can get 4 cragars for like 2-250 though. i may b able to get 3 for these? idk yet ill have to check the interest...

blades, if u have any skid platrs or w/e i think u do have the package, im not sure though... all i know is that the alloy wheels are more expensive lol



my friends got a white 99 F250, he got the Black KMC rock star wheels..those look sick on white.

 

i think that all trucks are different when it comes to the offroad package. my 98 came with these ugly ones.<a title="DSC00081.jpg" href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v241/Nchunter06/?action=view&current=DSC00081.jpg" ><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v241/Nchunter06/DSC00081.jpg" border="0"/></a>

Nah I don't have skidplates or anything, just the rims!! I wish I had the skidplates but sadly, no!!

 

at quadratech black cragars are cheap. 34-36 bucks a piece. Another vote for selling the stockers and getting new. Black could look good with a white rig, could look bad, I've seen both around here..

 

...WTH!?! those look like crap! never seen em on a ranger b4..

ill get some cragars, i thought pro comp rock crawlers at 100 were cheap.. till i heard about cragars! haha cheap is nice

 

we have what lug style? i dont wanna change the rim size much more then maybe go to 16x8.. the tires will still fit right? if im not mistaken mine are 16x7.


and waht back spacing should i go for? im new to that part of the game, i kinda understand it.. i just dont know what would be best on a ranger? i guess i have no choice though, it depends on the wheel width i go for

5 on 5.5" 16x7 4" $49.99
5 on 5.5" 16x8 5" $52.99

 

5x4.5" homie

BTW, I also vote for selling them. I made the mistake of painting my toyota's alloys, and later realized that the paint didn't hold up to rocks, and I could have just sold them for waay more than I thought.

 

I was thinking about painting the tear drops black on my truck.

 

dude are you serious? he has settled this problem a longg time ago.

 

HA! I was searching about painting rims, and this was at the top of the list, I didn't even look at the date.

 

Thats a damn good looking 4 runner! I'm not a Yota fan, but I'd own a black 4 runner Sport Edition in a heartbeat... ya know the one with the cowl like you have!

Matt, just buy some Rock Crusher black steelies from 4wp. $50 a piece, and they'll take a beating. Shoot, thats what Larry and Jesse are running!
