    Alright so i got board and decided i was going to paint the caps on my rims.

    Yes i know they look like crap right now but i kinda rushed it and didnt prep it the best so as long as you get the idea..

    what i want to know is should i paint it with the circle or with out the circle..

    I would just pain the caps black as well... Its too hard to paint the insert color and make it look good. They usually come out looking half assed.

    With the light colored truck, either all black or all factory on the wheels. Maybe matching the color would look ok on the embossing, if done right. The red would look funny with your truck color and stick out really bad.
