Just out of curiousity... How many rivets do you usually see on cars with wheels w/ rivets?

Dude... the point is you said he's all about having a theme and there's no theme.

You honestly can't see a black truck with chrome accents all over it having black wheels with polished/chrome accents as a theme??? It's not like they're focking purple.

It's totally cool if you don't like them, it's not even my vehicle so wtf would I care? It's just what you said that didn't really make sense.

No problem, as long as I can comment on your pickup truck grille that should have had the white area behind it painted first. But really, that is okay since it matches your Z71 ride height. Are those tail light blackouts I see in your sig photo? And you think my wheels are rice?

I missed the poll but I would have voted differently. I am just not a fan of black wheels. It isn't my car or money so its no skin off my back either what someone else does to their ride.
