Painted Wheels

(1/3) > >>

JohnnyPopper:
Getting ready to paint my red girl and the question came to me: have any of you painted the wheel portion to match the body paint?

I've seen different color wheels, black white etc, but not matched to the body color.

In this case the wheels would be red, with chrome center caps and beauty ring.

I just wonder if it would make it look like a chick ride? I'm not a girly man so maybe that's the underlying question.

Also, these wheels (while I like stock) look like every other C/K out there. Maybe a subtle band of red wouldn't be bad....

Shifty:
JP, I powder-coated the Wheel Vintiques on my 98 C2500, which is white, and I did them in a light blue to give the otherwise "vanilla" truck some color.  (I'll post a pic if I can remember)

Yours however, I would leave argent, as the red already provides character.

Just my opinion though.

JohnnyPopper:
Thx Shifty! Would love to see some pics.

bd:
FWIW, I agree with Shifty.
