What makes that sexy is the fact that it is a zo6. Black on black on MOST vehicles looks like crap. I'll be so glad when that "fad" has passed, and we're getting close.

IMO, DON'T do it, unless you want to look like you're too lazy to clean your wheels.

I see what your sayin, they do almost look bronze.. ddidnt notice til i looked at the back wheel..

And for those saying black on black is played out, Everything on that you see on the site is played out.. most of us have the same tastes and do alot of the same things to our trucks.. Kinda hard to do something that isnt played out. IMO

Black on black can look killer. I had those same wheels blacked out on my yukon for awhile and I got compliments on them all the time. Hey, I still have them actually, they are under my back porch. They could use a touch up, but pay the shipping and they are yours. I didn't run any centers, I left the lug nuts exposed, I don't have any pictures but it looked pretty killer.

I painted the backs of the wheels a nice gloss black, and paint the face semi gloss, it gave a nice effect on the truck if you kept them clean. Even though my truck was lowered, I ran the stock height tires. Everyone asked me if I raced it when they saw it. They said it looked long and fast.

Thanks for the ops guys.. I dunno what it is but I like this style wheel, will like it better when the rears are 9 or so inches wide ... I am not a huge fan for the blacked out look, like stated it is kinda played out, but here on the site. There isn't anything in my neck of the woods thats like that plus ima put a chrome bumper back on it and keep the chrome centers.. There is only a handfull of rcsb gm's running around, other then that it is f bods, dodges and lifted trucks... I am just ready for a change, have it in my head that it will look decent, esp with a nice fat DR's on the rears.. I think ima do it, but after I get a new bed on the truck which should be SOOON. I like my archers, was going to have them coated, but I want a hot rod style look, not the 20inch wheel look. LOL.

CTTANDY I am def interested, PM sent

Thanks
