Re: what wheel finish would look better??

chrome all the way for your truck man. Gotta stick with the chrome front bumper and chrome sierra molding. Keep the theme rolling dude!

Re: what wheel finish would look better??

like xtucking22's said, you have quite a bit of chrome on it, and the grey would look out of place. Id get polished or chrome, but since you didnt list polish i gotta go with the chrome

Whats going to happen to the irocs lol

Re: what wheel finish would look better??

I say someone chop it so we can all get a good view before anyone says anything final.

BTW I also agree with the grey

Re: what wheel finish would look better??

Grey for the win. I dislike chrome. Those are nice wheels. I'd like a set of 18's for the winter time.

They would look awesome against the blue but i would put the stock bumper back on and lose the full size trim. That's just my opinion, don't get all but hurt or psycho on me

There's pics of blue dimes or blazers with grey centered wheels floating around here, it looks good.

Re: what wheel finish would look better??

my friend's dad has them in black, on his 79 camaro...IMO, the chrome comes nowhere in comparison to the gray and black...but eh..whatever you like.

Re: what wheel finish would look better??

OORRRRR here is a new idea...get the gray finish, BUT then immediaty have the gray parts painted blue to match the truck. How about that? i think that would look sick...blue and chrome wheels. ya booyyyyiiiieeee!!!!!!
