When we purchased our 2012 GMC Sierra 1500 2WD about a year ago it came with 245/70/17 wheels and tires even though it was badged a Texas Edition truck.




I thought all Texas Edition GM trucks had 20" wheels. Well, it was time to replace the tires so we put on factory 20" wheels (in matte black) with 275/55/20 tires. I've never been a black wheel fan but I think they're becoming more popular and the look is kind of growing on me.

Opinions?







We have a black UnderCover Flex tonneau cover coming from Summit tomorrow so that should help tie it all together.

The black wheel thing is sort of getting old to me, but this looks good. Real good.

Thanks guys! Yes, the black wheel thing is pretty popular now. I've never owned a set and my wife picked these out. I've always been a polished aluminum or chrome fan like on our C5.

I've always thought back wheels were but why would care for others opinions.

I love black wheels, especially for cleaning brake dust and everything. I think it looks awesome.

Truck looks good man but a little word of advice is make sure you have a damn good set of locks. I'm sure you know factory GM 20's have been known to be stolen frequently.

Thanks guys. I appreciate all of the comments. Yes, they have gorilla locks. Discount Tire gave me the special socket to remove them. I'm wondering though how easy it is to purchase that socket. ??? The truck stays in our garage at night so that's not an issue. Work isn't either so it will have to be the grocery store, mall, ... parking lot. I suppose if they really want them they'll get them.

Looks good! I was going to put those exact same wheels on my truck before I decided to sell it.

They'd look better chrome (IMO), but it's definitely an improvement over the ugly 18s.

I'd debadge it, match the handle, get rid of the door molding, and clear the headlights.
