Trim rings or not
« on: July 22, 2010, 02:30:48 pm »
I just painted my ralleye wheels gloss black, and got new bfg all terrain 33's mounted.  I was going to put the beauty rings on, but I am kinda diggin the look now.  I'm torn, please help!

Thanks!!  I am going to go with whatever gets the most amount of votes between now and Sunday night.

I think with black rims and bigger tires I would go with out the trim rings. If they were silver with street tires I would say with the rings

Since you have the chrome fender trim and bumpers I would probably say yes, but it's a tough call without seeing pictures of the new tires & painted wheels on the truck. I usually don't like the beauty rings. I am reserving judgement on this until you post up a pic.

I have to wait till I get the chrome hubs back on to get the full effect.  Going to the lake this weekend.  Hope to post pics early next week.  Irish and Grim, your comments alone are making me think more toward putting the rings back on.  Will get the pics up soon.  Thanks guys!

I painted my rallys black and kept the beauty rings and chrome center caps and I love the look! I've got some pictures up of it in some other threads.
