    I just seen another truck with similar wheels , not feeling it , looks like stock it is ! Was going to powder coat a bronze color but at $90 a wheel , I think original is fine with me .

    In my opinion, if you're going to use these wheels, leave them as they are. They need "color offset" which they have with the black outers. To me, guys who black out the whole wheel-that never looks good as the tires are black. So it appears as too much purpose intended in an overkill way.
    Those wheels will look pretty tough once they have tires on them and are on the truck. And they are FJ wheels which means they actually are tough in function.

    Don't they sell plasti-dip in some type of bronze these days? Maybe give that a shot. Imo, how it is painted now looks too busy.

    Ok, I'm generally a very positive person, or at least if I see something not for me I don't say something...you asked, I'm not felling the love that much for all that shine, but who the hell am I and frankly if you like em tell everyone else to pound dirt.

    Youre right , I asked. Ive already taken the dip off. Im either going all bronze or just leave them alone.

    Thanks

    I have a set of those powder coated. They are surprisingly heavy wheels.

    It would actually be more surprising if they were actually light weight OEM wheels :D
