Yes, the DO look good! I was going to go back to stock for mine (got alum 16.5 w/ mudders - want 16 w/ ATs) but I think black is the answer...

They are just steal wheels that are painted black. I got them at les schaub. They are 10 Inch wide. They were cheap too. I put on a 3 inch lift and the tires are 315-75-16. I rub a little when I turn to the left. Its not bad though.

Also the ride is so much better then before. I also have 4 10 grears and now the rpms are much lower at the same speeds. I love it.

Wish I could, but Nova needs about $500 to get back to track, and going Friday to buy 8.25 rear for Dart, so money right now is kinda tight. Someone is gonna get a good break. Need anything on trade?????

After reading this thread I got to thinking......maybe I would like it if my rims were powder coated gloss black (be unique anyway) so thought I would get a preview

How it looks now


How it might look


Rears as they look now


As they might look


Glad I shoped that because I don't think I like it on my truck, oh well

I think they would look really good if the caps and lugs were left chrome...

Check out this seller on ebay:

Ron's Rims



I just bought a set of the Mojave's in polished aluminum for my truck frokm Ron's and I'm almost wishing I'd have gotten the teflon coated instead. I got the 20x10's which a lot of guys here seem to dislike but they really look great on the truck and there are some reasonably priced tires out there for them too.
