Best Wheels for a White Truck

[arbjosh]

I think the stock magnetics look best on our trucks. Throw some spacers on there and you'll have a nice fitment. I think I'm going bronze on my mag grey ranger.

Also, I'm surprised some certain members on here didn't come crying about your rules and their freedom of speech! They must be sucking on their pacifiers ???

Yup, you asked for opinions, BUT, you have to go with what makes YOU happy...with the look that everytime you look back at your truck, you think, "yeah I really like that" !!!
Try going to Discount Tire or Tire Rack web sites, and you will be able to scroll thru their wheels and see how they look on your truck. Enter your truck info and you'll see a note "see these wheels on your truck" and follow it.

Yeah I knew this can of worms I could be potentially opening when I created this post!
I was ready to pull the trigger on some magnetics last year and changed my mind. As I have blacked out anything not white or magnetic on my truck I started waffling again! Add to that someone local has a set of brand new black takeoffs and here I go again!
Like I said at the start I may not listen to you all, but I am interested to see the results.

All the feedback (even when breaking the rules ?) is GREATLY appreciated and interesting.
And at the same time we can have a little fun - Stinkin Rules!

And yes - I am a firm believer in your truck only your opinion matters.

If you go with factory black on a white truck the look will be awkward unless you engage in some additional styling mods - which seems perhaps counter to your intentions?

So I voted for magnetic. If you still want to tweak the appearance - muffler tips, lettering - I think you'll be able to soften the harsh contrasts.

Although the Stormtrooper styling suggestion was pretty funny.

Yup already have a black muffler tip and black Ranger letters
And yeah - the Stormtrooper look was my hesitation on Black Wheels.

The other thing about the Blask wheels is they are more 2D in shape, almost flat.

Magnetic - but I am biased, plus the look has really grown on me. Looks great dirty too.

I voted Magnetic, too. I have the silver XLT wheels on mine, but if I see a good deal on magnetic takeoffs pop up locally, I might have to try to get them.

Not a white Ranger, but I have the Magnetic's on my Ingot Silver , really like them and can see no reason to swap em for anything else.

Oh wow...didn't realize...I just broke your rule #4.

Magnetics on one side, machined magnetics on the other.

You think I'm kidding but I knew a guy who had the same wheel but black on the passenger side and chrome on the driver side. Pretty creative and threw people for a loop!

Edit: I saw the black appearance rims in person and didn't care for them. Not against black rims but the design was too flush with the tire almost like a dinner plate.

Never been a fan of bronze wheels on anything but blue vehicles.

When I think bronze I think rally blue like the WRX or something.

Get what you like best. This poll and opininions here wont satisfy your personal taste. Go with your gut.You have years of experience and your own perspective and view that is unique.Trust it!

To me;
Black looks cool, nascariash,also like an 80s rockcrawler, less refined

Grey is more reflective, modern, lower contrast and less pop

The right choice is yours!

Agree - I already had a direction I am leaning. I was bored and thought the survey would be interesting. It is! and entertaining! it is!
As long as everyone follows the ground rules! LOL ??

Well this was interesting. Magnetics coming in at the top spot is not surprising. But the close call between the machined wheels and Blacks is surprising to me.
SO my decision
Machined Wheels - I have them now, so FREE
Magnetics - Best looking with the sport pkg trim i have and my choice at the start.
Blacks. - Too shiny and too flat

Now to find some Magnetics at a good price and less than 3 hrs away!
