Check with Eric121. He's new, but here's his post w/pics: https://dodgeforum.com/m_735520/tm.htm I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for, but I think they look sweet.

Edit...forgot to put the damn link in

painted my stockers





If you want yours all black its super easy if you have the white lettering on the tire just tape that off and spray the rim you might wanna use a fine grit sand paper to go over the area your gonna spray then hit it with a few coats and finish it up with clear coat. Im very happy with the way mine came out i fooled a lot of people and saved ALOT of money till i can get the real thing

You can go to an auto parts store and buy wheel paint, it comes in spray paint cans. Make sure to get a good clear coat as well and give it a few coats of both.
