Leave wheels white, or paint em black? Pics, CK5 will decide

[FWP]

White wheels, as they are now....

As an example, Black wheels...

 

[sled_dog]

I think white works in that case.

I have a nice can of "Chrome" spray paint if you wanna bling it up a little. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif /forums/images/graemlins/whistling.gif

[santana]

seriosly tho', white looks better, it matches with the white and red of the body..

 

[4xcrazy]

I think either one looks good on it, the white looks good due to the white paint already on the truck, but personally i think the black rims give it a much m ore rugged look.

 

[boggerless]

personally white rims remind me of a 4x4 from the 70's. i rattlecanned my white rims black, definatly looks more rugged.

I think I know a guy that has white wheels on 37" MTR's. I think black works on your rig. Gives it a tougher look, but the white is classy er..uh.. as classy as it can look.

Umm, isn't a K/5 a 4x4 from the 70's? It's SUPPOSED to look like that /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

black rims look trashy
if you could run a chrome beauty ring they look good but the all black rim and tire is too much
industrial grey is an option that I stumbled on that even works on my entirely white and black beater

The factory ralleys (rallys? rallyes? whatEVER) were a silverish grayish thing called Argent.

Personally, I say keep the white, but that's just my taste. Both my trucks have the factory rally wheels, and are faded and chipped enough that they're half black and half argent /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

IMO go with black, that's what I am getting for both of my trucks. It makes it look more tougher /forums/images/graemlins/woot.gif

 

[evo]

imo black is the way to go! /forums/images/graemlins/peace.gif

 

[Bhintz]

black all the way /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

 

[tomseviltwin]

both. Paint swirls on them for the psychedelic look /forums/images/graemlins/pimp1.gif

 

[BlazerGuy]

Go with white. It seems that everyone and their mothers are painting their trail rigs black to make them "tougher". /forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif /forums/images/graemlins/doah.gif

 

[Z3PR]

I'd leave them white sence your rig is two-tone red and white. /forums/images/graemlins/deal.gif

 

[smokkey1]

I hate white but in your case white works /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

So, I'm looking at the two pix -- the second one has different tires. You actually took pictures of the truck with both sets of wheels, huh? (I figgered at first you'd done some photofaking.)
