    Rust, lots of rust
    I think the OP should color match them to his truck

    Yes it is. Great product, Brandon is very good at keeping you updated with your order.

    And like others have said, personally, I think color matching (especially on SWB) is a little much and ruins the flow of the wheels and truck. I say either keep them the way they are or paint the beadlocks black.

    MGMTacoFF- Yea after seeing yours I think Im gonna do them black. The color matched looks nice but not for me. Hows yours holding up after you painted them? DO you remember where you bought the paint from?

    I used "Rustoleum Spray On Truck Bed Liner" and it's held up very well. I bought the paint from Home Depot and I recommend either sanding the beadlocks a little bit or buying some clear paint primer to help the top coat stick to the stainless steel finish. Probably need about two cans of the Rustoleum to do 2-3 coats on each beadlock.

    On the other hand, I also recommend you buy "Plasti-Dip" from Home Depot and try that first. I don't know if you know much about Plasti-Dip but it is a type of rubber paint that you can peel off at any time. It is flat black and it would allow you to see if you like it, and if you don't, you can just peel it right off.

    Hope this helped.

    Thanks for the info. Its funny you say that because I was actually thinking about going the plasti-dip route just to make sure I liked em black. Used it on some door emblems once. Pretty cool stuff. Ill let you know how it goes. Gotta have Toyota do the alignment in the morning then I will probably try and tackle them.

    I just bit the bullet and ordered mine last month. I like the way it looks, plus I kept the old beat up ones for HD wheeling.

    I think these look really good with the truck! But i've got the dark grey color... don't think it would look that great with black centers and grey rings.. LOL
