Wonder if a trim ring would help brake up all the white on white.

Once I do the 5 lug swap I'll run 15x7 in the rear.

Maybe I'll play with Microsoft paint and see how they look ;)

I probably won't run trim rings but I do have a set of the full size covers.

Please be honest cause I am really thinking I should try the blackewalls. Confused and need some opinions. Thanks in advance. My wife says they look ok but then again when I came home with the steelies back on and asked her why do you think? She said what did you? :lol:

Paint the wheels a different color, maybe a darker red to match the patina spots in the truck. With those caps u have, it will mellow out the red and give it alittle pop to it. Just an idea

That is a GREAT picture! Love the stock look and the pumpkins in the back give it the proper sense of what the truck was meant to be used for! Love it!

I think the black wheel with cap and white walls would look good. And unique.

I've got black rally wheels with chrome rings and caps and I'm trying to decide whether to paint the wheels silver or white. I personally love the raised white letters...
