    Yup sure is. I just think that Black wheel are getting played out in lots of cases. IMO. I used to have black 22's when my truck almost lifted lol

    Sooo true blacks played out... Murdered out trucks look better with a flashy wheel even if it isnt flashy...

    How can you say black is played out, I would say chrome is played out more then anything.... Everywhere you look now people have ugly, cheap looking chrome wheels... I was talking to a guy yesterday and he was saying he was trying to buy some chrome rims for his truck, his exact words "I want some chrome rims, just some cheap ones that are shiny"... The only chrome wheels I actually like are ones like whiteouts tahoe.

    The wheels the guy has on this fourm would look way better black with the color of his truck then they do now... grey on grey doesnt look too good but grey and black looks good.

    I had chromes on my last truck and it looked good because it was the Indigo Blue Metallic. I think black would have looked funny. Now I have the truck in my sig and I think chrome would look odd since the only other chrome on it is in the grill (soon to be black). I think the OP's rims look good as they are because they fit with the grill, mirrors, and handles but would look funny on my current truck. I think the truck and rims have to compliment eachother.
    That being said, I think they'd look good in a gunmetal powder coat too.

    Who said anything about Chrome, I dont have Chrome I have Billet wheels. Chrome wheels can look like crap. Billet wheels on the other hand which are timeless. Billet wheels will always look good on any color. Gunmetal is better than black I think. but throwing black wheels on something to have something other than polished. no Dice for me. I really like OP's wheels. If was going with the Denali theme I would be rocking them but I opt'd to go NNBS GMC 17's. Sorry for crapping on your thread Jeff. Cant wait to see the truck in person again.

    Yes billets are awesome, chrome sucks, Black is not played out, you just have to know what colors they go with.. and certain stockers look good on certain trucks, im not a big fan off the 20 spoke stockers, therefore I say black poweder coat or gunmetal.
