I prefer black wheels because chrome would get scratched up on a 4wd but 2wds defiantly need some silver rally's with the beauty rings and caps

That's different though, you've got the rings and caps. What you have there is one of my favorite styles:High 5:

Your black wheels go with your truck John. I woudln't have an issue with those on that truck at all. If the truck was blue, white etc then no I woudln't like it.

Actually, I take that back, being Black, Silver or White and Rallies, they'd probably go with any color truck.

My truck looked like that, I'da had to wreck it too. Can't beleive they let IAA sell it for salvage. It shoulda went strait to the crusher !!! :rofl: j/k

That's not to bad either, but the chrome strip did look out of place. It needed to come off.

I think the only reason I can pull it off is that everything inside and out is black trimmed in chrome.

Mine look like ****?

part of me wants to be a complete a**hole and say does it have black wheels then yes. but since i'm such a nice guy i will explain what i was saying. when you see a truck with 24 inch tires and black rims then yes it looks like ****. when you see a 1970's caddy with black rims...... ****. yours actually looks good with them, but if you had any other paint job i would say it looks like **** too.
