Hey guys I've got a blue (with the tanish lower part) 04 Lariat Screw 4x4. I want to get some rims for it, but not sure whether to go with black or chrome rims. It's got the black mirrors, and black running boards. So I was wondering if anyone has pics of one with chrome or black rims. I've seen a couple on here a while ago but can't find them. Thanks

Ya I know, I had black on my Dodge Ram and currently on my Jeep Cherokee. Just was curious how it looks on the Lariats.

I can't imagine black looking good on blue/tan but that's just me. I would put money towards nice size tires since they are the most important/expensive part. Unless you want an aggressive style or offset of the aftermarket wheels, just stick with stock ones and plastidip if you need them black.

IMO..Chrome would look better on your truck...a pic would help..then somebody can photoshop both wheels on it for you and you can see what it would look like.

Maybe black with chrome accent? or machined? Some nice motometals or Fuel rims would looks pretty sick. That tan is gonna be different though..

I agree with the chrome...just my two cents. I have a 2004 Lariat like yours, only red with the tan around the bottom. Trust me, too much black with your color scheme will look cheap and overdone. Look into some chrome wheels if you have your heart set on getting some, maybe with some of those black studs that go around the edge that you see a lot of lately. Again...just my opinion.
