You should look into making the bottom of your truck black. It would work with the rims very well. Go into your local home depot and buy plasti-dip. spray the bottom and the bumpers of your truck. it will give you an idea of what it would look like with a black trim. if you dont like it, it peels off like plastic and if you do like it you can keep it or peel it off and paint it.

Just my opinion, the color of your truck and those rims would look way better with black on the bottom and no chrome bumpers.

According to whom? You?

If you ever have an accident attributable to wheel/tire failure and there are injuries or worse, yer going to regret those words. They do check these sorts of things, given cause. Why do you suppose the tire folks have those specs, anyway, hmmmm?

The dumb things kids do to save a few $$$

Oh yeah - my opinion (you did ask, remember): looks like *** - and also looks like you did it the cheap way, not the right way. Won't matter what colour yall paint it. Lipstick on a pig.

Sorry - just being blunt & honest. Adult truck forum, reckon. Nothing personal. Savvy?

So expert how is the right way let's here this
