New look, old wheels

[olharleyman]

SO I was wondering out load again with my friend this evening after getting a couple things done on my truck (cat installed and a little extension of the exhaust) and my friend handed me these

I should have known he was up to something when he showed up with them in his hand knowing full well I only drink if it's these or St.Paulie Girl.

So I was over his place yesterday thinking out loud about how I was not really liking the rims on my truck and wondering what they would look like if I painted them black to give them a little depth. Well needless to say he remembered it came over this evening handed the beer to me and said
" I DOUBLE DOG DARE YOU TO PAINT THEM RIMS AND I WILL EVEN TAKE YOU TO GET THE PAINT" well after 3 of them beers and a DDD there was nothing else to do but do it.

So here's what I did and how they turned out like to hear what you all got to say about them, I am kind of not really sure I am thinking maybe just completely blacking them out will look better any input gladly excepted.

So what do you think?

[Crinale]

i think they look good... any further away shots of the whole truck?

[corax]

Mmmm . . . Grolsch. I would've probably held out for some Saint Bernardus

Look good though, I'd keep it two-tone

[Scooter25]

Deffinitly stick with the 2tone.

[Scuba]

Should look bitchin on your truck

[YotaFun]

looks awesome.
Something I would have done was kept those bolts silver too.
that would have added a nice pop.

Those will be replaced or cleaned up to be silver again just have not got to them yet but I agree with you 100%
