From: Cincinnati, Ohio - Amelia is the exact place. There is no one else on this site from where I am. Seems like everyone is from Cali or Washington. I guess I need to move.

It is awful, but it might come out cool (probably not though), but like a soft, light metallic gold, just for and grins

i think its more of the tire than the wheel that makes it look bad, a lifted truck and street tires just dont look quite right.

Yep... like others have said, I like the wheels but you need bigger tires.

they're alloy !

get some mud on them, and be happy they're not dented.

alloy wheels are the best, who cares what they look like, they will roll easier.
painting them black, im not so sure about that, b/c it will just be paint.
meaning it will fade/scratch/get cleaned off after time. then you'll have fuggly wheels.


i would (if and i stress if anything) polish them. you can always keep them clean, but re-painting would bug me.

either way you go, post more pix.

Well I think I'm going to keep em. They're growing on me I guess (like fungus ) They're 16 x 8 and good quality might throw the 35" MT's on them in the summer.
