What did you use to edit? I want to try editing some wheels on mine.
A lot of time on paint actually

Nice I think they give it more of a tough bruiser look especially with the meaty tires.Doesn’t look as formal if that’s the look you want.

I think I like them but it's kind of hard to see the picture is dark.
Have you tried going on the TireRack site. They have different wheels and they will show what they look like on your year/model/color truck.
I have but it’s not the same bc they don’t have my color or the tires and I want to see what it looks like with tires and wheels

Okay, I know what you mean. They are a little light on the newer models. I couldn't find a match for my 17 EL

Black wheels look like your wheel covers were stolen. Too ghetto for me. I've had them on one (1) car and couldn't wait go get them off.

I prefer the chrome ones you just posted over black wheels. I’m not a fan of the black wheel look as many people here have cheap black steel wheels they run in the winter

boy and I thought I was the only one who felt that way.
I actually like the wheels that came with my truck, I just wish they weren't pitted I would like to touch them up if I could figure out how to there are many different opinions on this I am finding
I’ve done an ironx decon, clay bar, Polish, wax and seal and they still seem to pit

Oh man... choosing wheels was a tough one for me. I'm like a lot of you that don't really care for the black. In my mind, when I think of custom wheels my mind goes to chrome. So when I was looking for wheels I was thinking chrome... then came across this other option that Fuel calls black flake that tied in with the trim color a bit. Did what you did with a little editing. After much, much deliberation and actually buying the chrome Rock Stars (and returning them), ended up with the black flake. I REALLY like them. I still think of the chrome once in a while but I'd be wanting to keep them shiny and with these they never look dirty

With your Expy being all white, the black wheels look good. Chrome looks great on it though... classy, classic, suits the style. I'm liking the chrome.

Man that thing looks mean! I'm surprised they don't stick out more being a +1 offset. Got any more pics?? I've got the wheel I want picked out, I just can't decide on the offset.
I hate everything chrome, but I also don't like all black wheels either. I like the gloss black pockets with a machined face. With the white you can't go wrong with either.
