ya and every one is painting them black. I think #1 is more origional and I've never seen a set painted like that yet. and if I end up not liking them, it will just take a lil bit of paint to change them.

I still have to find a place that sells cooper zeon LTZ's cheaper. I'll be in michigan next month for the DF meet and greet. I might look into picking up a set there and installing them. but who knows.

There's probably a reason you've never seen that

I'm amazed there is so many people voting for #1. Having black/chrome like that looks cheap like it came from walmart or off a drug dealers car. I like #2 and #3. If you had the chrome bumpers I'd vote 2, but since they're black, i voted 3.

just to clarify, I dont have the chrome clad rims. they are the aluminum ones. so it wont be chrome. its more of a silver. I like to be different. why copy everyone else with the same mods.

I would still kill for ramhunters rims though....

His bumper is only black because the Bumper shell and spoiler broke and he is waiting to get another one.

#2 or #3 look the best to me, #1 just doesn't look right to me.

ya I have a bumper for it. I got it off a rumble bee. I just have to get it painted. I had it on for a week for test fitting and it looked like hell with a yellow bumper lol. but by the end of the month. she will be back to silver


im still deciding between 1 and 2. I think I'll do a rim like #1 and see how it turns out and take a pic of it. and if it looks like crap. I just have to paint the rest of it.

thanks for all your opinions!

I like #2 with chrome lugs. You can always put caps on the lugs if you don't like them.

#1 is how I would do my rims if I painted them. But I don't think these new style look the same as the old ones with the chrome lip. Everytime I've Photoshopped my truck, I've always done the black with a chrome lip, and that's how I'd paint these rims.
