    I think it looks good. You may want to paint your bumpers also.

    Then the old fart steps in and says-leave it alone because your rare gold paint IMO looks better with some bright offset. Take a good look-the original rim color compliments that body well-easier on the eyes.

    nothing, all stock expect got a OE replacement air filter K&N.
    question: did your rig comes factory color of that color or did you paint?
    answer: i think it looks better with chrome, but black goes with it too. its up to you. man

    Previous owner probably had it repainted

    I like the colour of your truck, but in my opinion it looks better with the stock wheel colour. Maybe if you added gloss black steelies the black would look nicer, but -- and again, just my opinion -- I think many painted stock wheels have an "unfinished" look (or something).

    I say leave it, I like black rims with some colors, but I think they look good as is with that color. I like the color too, different. Its all in what you like though. I bet it will be 50/50 asking on here.

    definitely looks great both ways. why not paint one side black and leave stock on other, best of both worlds :p
