I didn't know they still had these wheels around. Yes they do look good on these trucks. Used to call them wagon wheels

+1 Never really been a fan of them, especially when my Father wanted to pick up a set of white ones with red and blue pinstripes on the lips for our Old 70 Sub! Even at the Sears price of $20 a piece, I thought they were a waste of money!!  :-X

Oh and how do they look on our trucks, just like they did when GM/Ford/Chrysler offered them back in the 70's and 80's, even through them already mounted on your new truck/van/suv, or Available at their Stealerships for awhile!!

Meh Too Generic ??? But I guess if it is your thing, or you are going for a Factory Stock Look, then by all means go for it...

If you are leaving your bumper white, I would get the white ones instead of Chrome.

I've got the white ones on my truck, but they have been drilled to accept the rally center caps:
