It's different. I thought of doing this to a truck I had, but never did it for whatever reason. The lugnuts aren't the cheapest either...

Think it would looker better on a "bling" truck.
 
They look alright, not bad but not super omg gotta have them on my truck either. :D
 
ehhh



paint 'em black maybe?
 
Put a beauty ring around the rim and it'll work as far as aesthetics go, not so much for a real wheeler.
 
I wouldn't suggest them on a wheeled rig just cause if you ever have to pull an axle shaft or hub its just one more thing to take apart and/or break on rocks. I used to have the style of caps that came in from the back of the rim and pinched between wheel and hub. I broke a 14ff rear and if I didn't have that I could have just pulled the axle shaft w/o taking tire off. They do look nice for a DD rig though I have to admit, and I generally hate chrome. Paint them blue to match truck and would be sweet.
 
With full floaters and locking hubs , they look best on those rims with hubs showing .

Now , those would look real nice on a set of older factory steelies with trim rings :D
 
I like them. I also like the trim ring suggestion... for the street of course.

i dont want the trim rings ive had a couple get ripped off in the woods. i must say it did look a bit better with the top down. i dont know i guess they are growing on me, i just know i didnt like the rusty lugnuts on there before.
