nah man, bank changed my mind for me......

i think i will like it but i just want to see some pics before hand, black rims with a chrome lip sound like they will be expensive, well maybe not expensive but more than just your standard black rims.....

I picked mine up for $89 each through Discount Tires..Price matched even though they weren't the same brand.

maybe a chrome/black wheel....kinda like i got, but not all black.....

if they are steel wheels they will be extremely hard to balance because they have a tendency to be out of round...

i know what you mean, i think it depends on the truck though, seems like some truck can just pull off the look without being cheap looking where as others will just look like crap, im def getting away from the idea now that i talk and think about it, just trying to figure out what style i want.....

if you decide to do it do not get steel wheels. it will make the shake in the wheel even worse then you mention in your other post!!!

you guys amuse me. "steel whels are cheap" you can't balance tires with steel wheels" i have steel wheels. i use shops that use "roadforce" tire balancing. it's for larger oversized tires 32+ along with heavier, steel wheels. my truck rides great! no shakes, nothing. remember: if you don't ask for roadforce, your way out of balance!
