Just purchased an Oxford White XLT and I can't make up my mind whether the Fuel Shok in Matte Black or Anthracite will look better. Truck will be lifted with 18x9 Shok wheels and Bushwacker OEM styled flairs.

Well, I couldn't decide so I did both. Was at the shop were I was purchasing the wheels and the guy helping me suggested these, they're Fuel Kicker 6 +1 offset. A bit more aggressive looking than the Shocks and incorporate both Black and Anthracite, problem solved. :like:

I think either one will look great but if it were me I would go wth the matte black. I think they will look better with the Oxford White especially if you add some other black accents on the truck.

But everyone does black wheels on white vehicles, aka the StormTrooper.

Can you go on their site and see what it looks like? Tire Rack has a visualizer. I think I like the Anthracite

I've seen both on a white Ranger, just looking for opinions to help sway me one way or the other. Both look good on the white, but I am leaning towards to the Matte Black because it will match other items on the truck.

Whenever I am given a choice, I take the black! (But either one would work!)

Either one is fine, they are beautiful wheels, no doubt.

Glad what Ford calls "Argent" is not one of the choices, which is a $100 word for silver paint.

Methods look better than both of those by far.
