Not a fan of white/cream colored wheels with chrome lugs, the lugs kinda get 'lost' on the light background. They don't 'pop' like with a dark (black) wheel. Same deal with chrome rings, they need that darker background to stand out. I'd keep the light wheels with the factory caps...style 2. I love my Power Wagon too but it doesn't have A/C yet and gets a whopping 7 MPG.

I used to buy and flip a few as the cat/s would get clogged and any place that had a weak gasket would spit oil but was never motivated for an engine swap. STOP POTATO HATE!

I like to let the chrome nuts hang out so they can be seen, otherwise, what was the use of buying them? I guess I've had too many issues with the dog dish caps, the trim rings, and the full caps. Well I ordered them thinking about letting them show and maybe using the trim rings, but I don't care for the looks of the trim rings. But if nothing else I guess the closed lug nuts will help keep the threads from getting rusted. Everything rusts around here.

Sorry I know that wasn't a choice but his Ford looks good like that and I think your truck would look really good like that with matching blue wheels and caps. Otherwise #2.

No, just kidding, that's ridiculous. Me, I'd run the silver or white wheels with hubcaps of the choices offered. Or a later model factory alloy wheel. (Says the guy who perpetually agonizes over wheel choices...)

Not totally sold on it yet. I think I'm going to put the chrome lug nuts on and run it like that for awhile, it might grow on me.
