DC-1s (Blacks) on my truck, personal opinions.
 
Hey, Im really considering these DC-1 Black wheels like many others seem to be, and I just figured id show you guys a pic of the truck, and see what you all think. Another thing is if I get them, should I save money and just get 15x8s and reuse my stock tires or get the 16s and then have to buy new tires to. The truck is a street only truck by the way.

I dont think they will look good on a blue truck, go with polished or chrome version. They will look alot better.

zabeard 03-18-2007 03:51 PM

go chrome or aluminum.

jtslmn720 03-18-2007 03:55 PM

:stupid: i only like the black on black or white trucks... go with polished...

mj550 03-18-2007 04:03 PM

Well, I was also planning on getting different lights, such as the black headlights and tail lights to go with them.

Biz 03-18-2007 04:08 PM

go with all black..dont get those dc-1's...starting to be a trend on here now...imo it would look silly on your truck..go with all black and black tail,black headlights and do a black and sonic blue interior...it will look pwnage.

If you think it will look awesome on your truck then why ask. Alot of people will think that the black DC-1s will not go with Blue and to go with either the polished or chrome ones. I hate to sound rude

Yeah man I agree, however I was still curious on the whole size thing if I should stay with 15 or go 16. I think with those different lights, and those wheels, it will give it a whole new look, and it should look good. Also your truck looks awesome :biggthump

zabeard 03-18-2007 04:14 PM

depends on how much you want to spend on tires next go around.

15" tires are cheaper.

16" wheels would be cheaper in the short run but more later when its time for tires.

you have stock tires which suck IMO, i say get 15s and new tires.

2ranger2 03-18-2007 05:22 PM

why does everyone have to get the same exact wheels?

mj550 03-18-2007 05:34 PM

lol theres like 2 or 3 people on here that have them I think. Besides, just because they are popular on here doensn't mean theyre popular here in my area where I live, I sure havent seen any around here.

15x8 would be your best bet cheaper down the road
as in using your stock tires i did it only because i have only 16grand on them and broke lol

like you have not seen it before but here is a 235/75r15 on them not bad but needs at least a 31

I guess I dont know what the DC-1s look like but as many know here I shopped for rims for nearly 6 months before I actually bought any, you can see my choice here http://www.tncprowebmedia.com/pictur...?g2_itemId=261

Well you are going to do what makes you happy anyway,it is like asking someone where they like eat at best,but you still have your favorite place to eat,so you eat there.

Redneckstone 03-18-2007 08:19 PM

no go with something else

DangaRanger99 03-19-2007 02:52 PM

Ide say chrome on a blue truck....www.4wheelparts.com has polished and black for the same price! Only downfall to polished is you have to stay on them constantly for em to shine

Machine090767 03-19-2007 03:12 PM

i love my black wheels, but as stated before, with your color of truck, go with polished chrome

mj550 03-19-2007 04:22 PM

Whats the main difference between polished and chrome?

jtslmn720 03-19-2007 04:27 PM

polished is just raw aluminum while chrome is chrome platted.... chrome is 100X easier to care for but costs more...

do the dc1s even come in chrome under 20"? i remember only seeing big sizes for chrome

gatorblue92 03-19-2007 04:43 PM

i think they would look good on your truck

Trigger01 03-19-2007 08:13 PM

I don't like the DC-1's so I say get something else.
