shiny or rusty?

[Max]

Guess it depends on whether you get your hands on that paint, Cletus!

I think shiny wheels make a truck look 100% better whether it is a beater, rat rod, or full blown show truck.. just my

[Casey 65]

Go with the shiny.

[ezernut9mm]

it got dark quick, but you get the idea. just a quick scrub on the wheel with some 0000 steel wool and shiny cap.

I think shiny is a more of a finished look. I think shiny would look better if you repainted the grill and bumper and wheels.

[Gritsngumbo]

Shiny! But you gotta paint those wheels.

[ezernut9mm]

easiest route would be to find four loose wheels and get them done up then remount tires. lol

[Greg D]

Red wheels (just not too bright - Ox blood?) & the shinys - just what works.
Start saving for a set of wide whites.........................
Red & white pinstripping around the door handles, hood ornament, fender emblems, and across the top of the tailgate.
Ditch the rear bumper - mod a roll pan to bolt in & paint it.

Either that or change the interior trim color and roll with it outside too.
I know the red & white seem very typical but your truck will pull it off - jus sayin................
Set of lakes wouldn't hurt.................
Just don't get those poser things with the 3 outlets.

Well yes but now you will go on a mind numbing crazy hunt for another set of original Kelsey Hayes rims to have powder coated .

lol. smart ass rick.
greg, i think white wheels will work on this truck. i wouldn't mind painting the center of the side trim red though.

[slickmainer]

id go rusted or some nice argent and red ones but that just my opinion.

[ezernut9mm]

i'll wait until after i lower it to see what works.

You are right,
stripping it it with red & white still pulls it all together too.
Paint the trim? do it the easy way bro - 3M red trim tape.
Find a sign shop and have them cut you a strip. If ya get tired of it peel it off, you could also do white that way too.
I like the red on the caps idea with the white wheels BTW!

rusty for you, shiny for me. just send 'em my way. honestly keep them both for an easy cruise nite mod for when you want to change it up a bit.

[Shadow]

I Don't Know Chris, There Are People That Pay Big-Money For Perfect Patina Like That. Those Are Aged To Perfection. Wait Until After Greaserama To Slap The Shiny Ones On. LOL..............

[Greg D]

You do know if you get 90s steelies they have a larger center hole.
You can then get push through bullet center caps, add a set of chrome lug nuts and you have your spider cap look.
Actually this is a step up from spider caps cause it's the real deal.

I think the shinney ones look great on her Ezer!, I`ll come by and take those disgusting old ones off your hands for you, I`m just that kind of nice guy!...

[Rusty 63]

I'd say shiney on the driver's side, rustic on the passenger's…
