2010 rims. Not the 11+ rims. I know what those look like. Everyone has them. I wanted to see what the older 20s look like in black

Please, man. I feel like you're not even reading the thread before being the search police. :/

Please, man. Read the whole thing first before commenting.

OP, I was going to have mine black powder coated when I had my '10. I had a photoshop of it and I will look for it when I get home.

I had another thread on plasti-dipping mine. I searched (mobile) because I could have sworn there used to be a thread on someone else doing it. I was hoping to get feedback on how they held up over time. I got a couple good replied but that was it. Apparently our members find it easier to take the time to tell you to search for it rather than just help.

you can probably go to a custom body and paint shop to have them match the paint code of the truck or specific color you wanted. My best friend owns a shop in Maryland and he does one colors for about 125 to 150 a wheel. He can do anything you can think up... Here is an example, the white is painted over what used to be just machine polished...

Thats what I was thinking, Ive always liked the bufferfly ones that Ram trucks have had in the past, and I like the old 69-71 Z-28 Camero rims style. These being flattened out FX4 look cool.....might have to check the black market and see what's out there....LOL.......J/King....lol..... I have my rims picked out Rolling Big Power 94R Chromies for the homies....lol Bling Bling....But id get these if I could find the FX4 chromed already...

I also like these Rims on our 2008 FX4, Im getting use to the one on my New 20122 XTR
