I just got them today, WOW! is all I can say. I have the chrome bumpers, doorhandles and step bars, it really goes well together. Super easy snap on fit.

UPS finally delivered mine about an hour ago. They don't have the center caps holes cut out like they do on the ebay auction, but I decided to install them anyway. They looks great in the dark, lol! Hope they look even better tomorrow? Will take some pics and post them this weekend. Might look even better with some red painted calipers?

I contacted the guy I bought them from and he said they should've had the hole in them and to send them back, but I never did.

There's a guy on ebay that can make you some decals. I think he said the Ram heads needed to be 2.25" to fit in the wheel skin perfectly. I'll see if I can find his mail he sent me. I would measure mine, but got rid of my truck a few weeks ago for a gas sipper

Why you would cover those nice rims with cheap plastic chrome is beyond me. I just got my chrome clad 20's replaced under warranty and quickly went out and bought some steelies and winter tire for the rest of the season, No more salt or brake dust allowed on those new ones, summer wheels. Even at that I hear people are having issues. I am gonna baby these and wax them all the time and see if it makes a difference.
