Agreed. Teacher's look pretty good too. There shouldn't be any worries about fitment either if you take that route. Put them back on and go.

I like those! And Joe, I need my fogs smoked out still! Lol.

You all kick *** for the plethora of responses. Idk about powdercoating my stock 20's though, something just feels wrong about baking black paint on that beautiful wheel lol.

As for the moto, I feel like it's TOO trucky, as in my truck doesn't really match that look. It looks to be an offroad rim, and my truck kind of has that sporty fast look going on....I think. Some things to consider for sure, but either way, I kind of got that whole black rim bug going on....great, look what I set myself up with.

Damn, I really like that second one, good find man! I think that will be the next thing I do to this truck. I need to be patient and put some money on the principle of my loan first, but maybe within a month or two I will pick something like that up, it would really just set my truck off.

I like the first one you posted.....they look sick....but everyone's options they have posted all look good as well.....But about painting yours....remember it is just a steel wheel and a aluminum cover dipped...thats it....yes they look good i like them as well....but there are not that many trucks with that wheel in black....plus you could still keep a small strip chrome if you wanted....i cant think of the guys name but he has the the newer 20's powdercoated with a red stripe around the outside....and they look sick....
