Black wheels for snow wheels.. me like!
I took off my American Racing Atlas wheels today for the winter and had my 33" BFG's put on some el cheapo all black rims with round holes. I was skeptical at how it would look but I think it looks sweet!!! Now if only I could get the time to fab up my rear bumper I would do that and get an ARB.. while ditching the chrome. Those few things can totally change the appearance of a truck! The guy at the tire shop said he got several comments from customers today as it sat in the parking lot. I just dropped it off and caught a ride to work today so it was there all day. Anyways thought I would share.. if you been thinking of this... give it a go... looks good.. at least with my all white runner w/black flares and a yak rack.

Heres the pic
A pic as promised.... What do you think?
From this
To this
And finally to this... Till spring anyways then I'll probably go back to my purty chrome
Went white walls out to keep the tire wear correct. Sure changed the appearance of the truck.
