I agree...if it had some contrast I would have lived with it and liked it more.

Thanks for the compliments guys

Looks much better!
I wasn't a fan of the black wheels....

BTW, what part of Houston are you from?

I had slight slight rubbing when the tire was turned at full lock, very low down around the bottom of the rear fender liner. I just pulled the liner back, trimmed a small piece of metal which allowed me to zip-tie it back an inch or more...got plenty of clearance now. Wheels are 20x8.5 with 30mm offset, the 22's were 22x9.5 35mm offset on 285/40/22 tires. The 22's had too much clearance imo.

truck looks awesome with the chrom, but the black looked killer too. the contrast though makes it look soooo much better. wheels match the headlights now.

Great looking wheels. Do you have any idea how the weight of those wheels compares to to factory 20s?
