Default Method Fat Five Wheels on my '13 Silverado

I got my truck exactly three weeks ago and decided to go the black wheel route. I finally decided on these Method Fat Five's. I couldn't find any pics of them on a Silverado anywhere so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. I'm pretty happy with them, it always takes me a few days to get used to new wheels. So, here ya go! Now I'm just waiting for my Belltech parts to come and I'll be doing a 2/3 drop as well as blacking out the mirrors and.....what else? I'll get to some exhaust and headers eventually.

Cheers!

I actually like those a lot, kinda like a cross between the SSS 20s and rockstars lol. Should look really good once you get it a little closer to earth.

You go with the Belltech drop struts? If so, you won't be disappointed.

Those black wheels are going to look real nice with a mild drop.
Most black wheels are made with offsets for the lifted 4x4 crowd.
I've been looking for black wheels for mine as well.
Good choice.
Center cap looks a liitle out of place though.

What's the pricing like? I like these too. Did they have a 22" option?

Those are the stock tires that came on the TX Edition Wheels when I bought it. I think it will look better when it's lowered. Yes, I got the Belltech lowering struts for the front. I'm going with Belltech shackles for the back for a total of the 2/3 drop I think.

Price wasn't bad...at all. Wheels were just over $800 and Discount Tire cut me a deal to swap out the tires from the stock wheels. I walked away, tax included for just over $900.

Thanks for the compliments.

Oh, and to answer the other question, I didn't see them in 22's but I wasn't looking for them either so I can't say for sure.
