what about those? I think they are sweet, I am just not sure on your truck.
Yeah, I really love the SRT-10 Ram rims, but I would really like to have a chrome lip to kind of give it a little bit of pop. The lip will accent the chrome badges I have on the truck nicely I think. I figure if I can find a nice deal with for a set of black 20" rims for under $800, it will be my little treat for the truck. Then I plan to put the remainder of my tax returns towards the principle of my loan....I just got to have a little bit of fun though, especially considering my brother rocking that 2010 Ram lol.

Personally I don't ever go "offroading", I use the truck for daily driving and working/hauling with it. Do you guys think the black rim will look good in the 20" size? I would buy another wheel and tire combo, but I'd like to keep the price down reasonably, and I really would like to get the full use out of those damn toyo open country a/t tires. I'm pretty excited about this though, I would love to finally commit to an all black truck
What about those SRT knock offs oe posted? You could still use your tires and get the all black look you are going for.

That does look pretty badass, but I think it's a little too busy for my taste.

They are pretty darn sweet but it looks like they cost more than $150 than the ones I saw on Moe's.

They might cost a little more but they would look much better on your truck.

Is there a reason that they are considered "knock-offs"? Is it because they are painted black and aren't the factory chrome?
