Default 1999 ford ranger XLT rims

Hi i am looking for some sharp looking rims for my truck. i currently have american racing VENTURA on it, but they are quite beat up and are about 4-5 years old. i'd like to get something newer, but cant find what im looking for, so im asking for some help. i cant decide between black or chrome either. My truck is the darker red, kinda like burgundy. i think black goes with red real well, but i have chrome bumpers and grille on my truck. however i dont want to spent more than $200 a rim. anyways, hope you guys can help, thanks!

Since I have chrome on my truck I went with the AR 172 polished wheels. I have had these 15x8 rims since the summer of 2000 when I lifted the truck. They still look new. I bought the truck new in July of 99. Black would be ok. Google photos of trucks with black rims with chrome trim package and see how that looks.

That band is my Ford stripe I made many years ago when I had a decal maker. The decal maker broke one day and I never bought another one. I sold lots of stuff on Ebay and around here in my area.



Here is the spare tire mounted in the bed and the bed extender I modified to fit the bed.
