Like the Fuel Assault wheels. Terrible.

I do wish the OEM’s were a +34. That would make my decision easier.

Okay, that’s maybe what’s in the back of my mind about the Contra’s. Don’t have to go far to see them and the East Indian population from India that’s immigrated to my area loves them. They are all over the place. But I was thinking all satin black is a little better. What’s your OEM set up? Pics?

Personally I will never do black wheels. Unless you coat them and clean them on weekly basis, they look horrible after 6 months. Gloss black wheels will get swirled up just like black paint, and matte or satin black just look dingy. Mine is just the oem grey 20" 6 spoke sport wheel. I hate the offset, wish they were closer to a +30, but I hate the aftermarket wheels even more. I have since put Falken Wildpeak tires on in a slightly larger size so it looks better, just hate that weak offset.

I have had those wheels and they are the nicest wheels ever made. But I’m trying to go a little more modern and not having much luck.

I agree on the offset. Why stop at +44 might as well go 50. Wheel shops always say mine are probably +34 before they look into the actual specs and are surprised.

Sorry to sidetrack, I know you detail. What do you like for tire dressing? Truck looks great.

Thanks! I usually either use Optimum Tire Shine (my favorite of late) or 3D 708 universal dressing (has many uses and can be diluted to desired shine).
