Is the stripe a sticker or is it actual paint. That's the only thing I didn't like about the black chrome.

I wanna see them with tires mounted. It might look good???? Same w where u guys are getting black lug nuts?

Are u guys getting the 17 9.5 wheels running passenger tires around 30 inch tall. I'm have trouble finding a 30 inch truck tire that would fill a 9.5 wide wheel.

Looks like it's painted, it kinda looked funny to me when I first ordered them but has grown on me.

It's going to be a few weeks before I get tires mounted and it all installed on the truck. I'm in the middle of rebuilding the 80e. :/

Caved in and bought the 17" rear wheels. Now, will the 325 M&H fit inside the fenders on a 7" rear drop? Gonna wait for the 4.5" fronts to come out.
