That is what I was originaly thinking. But like I said in the last post I really am starting to like them 50/50. I have had my eye on the 725 for a wile. The 726 has also been high on the list. If I end up powder coating them all black then the "clean" of the 725 turns into just a 8 spoke because I think the accents are what makes the wheel. But I don't have any other chrome on the truck. All pewter and black. The 726 all black is something more then just a 8 spoke without getting crazy.

My mind is made up for now atleast. I will be ordering the 726 tomorrow morn and should have them by tuseday. I am excited to finaly afford wheels.

Turns out the 726 wouldn't have been a good option anyway. They barely have enough offset and the 726 is 10" wide vs the 725 is 9.

I am praying and fairly confident after mesuring that the 20x9 725 MB will be just inside the fender flair. Wile the 20x10 726 would be out another half inch.

They will be here tomorrow and I can't wait!

Yeah, the wheel pics don't look good at all IMO... I'm a black wheel hater though in general
