What Color on Rims?

[PToombs]

What color should I paint my rims? This is now,

[TWorline]

I vote for RED to tie the rain covers in with the rest of the truck.

[RumbleFish]

i say rust to match the flat bed!

ok, seriously though, i would go with a darker charcoal type grey, or green to match the cab.

Gray...............

i vote a dark grey... not green... or you could go john deere yellow and make it a tractor oh yah

I say you should come buy the set of aluminum ones I have that are 16.5 X 10, old style that match the look of our trucks.

dark grey (graphite) or black. you can paint your grill inserts, tail lamp bezels and other trim pieces to match. and if you ever do put some expanded metal on your headache rack (aint doin much good now is it?) you could match it too.

rnr, I have a set of 33-12.5 16.5's. I tried them on right after I took that pic. The offset is wrong, they'll hit the stake pockets if it drops 2 inches. I wanna go burn 'em off.


I was thinking silver, but it's too light, IMO. I have yellow on the trailer, it's too much .

hahaha well if you know of anyone that needs a set. You might as well do what the artsyfartsy people think looks good. Sandblast them and let them rust. (I never figured out why they think that looks good)

i just wana say i dig the stacks and tailpipe thing... i almost did a stack and f-u pipe in front of the duals with a manual switcher... but ditched the idea and just put up the anti sky lights , i was just always a big fan of lighting up (or blacking out for that matter) the inside of a car with their windows down haha...

ok only did that once, and i knew them so it wasnt that bad, lol...

but back to the point, yellow would be funny... but honeslty i agree with said graphite grey/black color...

i am painting mine gloss black and leaving the chrome center caps...

[PToombs]

I have black on the temporary wheels. It looks ok. Need a set of trim rings. (hint hint )
I got some wiser answers on TDR than here, I got pink, grey, black, I got another guy trying to sell me rims, one said the same green as the truck.

[TWorline]

You know those coffee cans do have a pink tint to them... I think I would go with the dark grey as well. That cab looks great!!!

Speaking of trim rings, where do you get them? Can you still buy new crome rings like you used to? I remember getting them at a parts store for my street rod when I was a kid. I am looking for a set for my project 93.
