    Here's a pic of the gloss black, but they is dirty as hell, sorry man... was not gonna wash then for a pic..... They are shiny when clean...
    I like the black nuts....don't need no $35.00 caps, because I think I'd have to use the other nuts or buy another set with the washers..!!

    The chrome nuts rusted all to Rat Shit in the 10 yrs. I had them on in the winter....!! I'm all for black nuts...!!!:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::rofl:

    Who gives a fuck what they look like, they're winter wheels and tires that will be covered in snow, salt and grime.

    Why waste brain power worrying about it.... unless you're a chick?

    The gloss does look good, I was worried about fading with the gloss. Did you just end up painting the ends black, no center caps?

    Thank you, that flat grey steelies does nothing for me with these trucks. End game is to buy a new set of tires & rims in a year or so and use the stock sport rims for my winters.

    P.S Love the Barcelona Red, was torn between that and the BBP when I was truck shopping this year.
