Your worried about wheels wobbling.....get in my truck, do about 25mph and look at my back wheels, they have like 3 ozs of wheel weights on them to keep them balanced, got newer rims outside for my truck already, but what it has now are just fine.

As for color, pearl white, why you ask, just sit and think about it, black is to common of a wheel color, get a color that will compliment your trucks paint job and make wheels stand out from it too.

although black is common it works with many colors and a color change may be in the pages for this puppy. i may go back to a near stock silver, etc.
i got the muffler today.
gonna put it on prolly next monday or something.
wanted to do it tomorrow but prolly wont have time headin out of town for the weekend. plus for safeties sake i wont be doin much drivin lol

and my bended wheel

 

[dangerranger83]

I wouldnt use that wheel.....bended....spell check....bent....jking ya its not one I would use.

IMO I would go for a color with metal flake in it.

that ones gonna be the spare. and 2 of the others have the lip bent. im not gonna run em forever. just for winter tires i think. and im gonna look for something in a silver i think. cheap. hehe and then throw some clear coat on it and some beauty rings. and try and round up some new hubs. see how it goes...

so maybe goin with black, and the reason i didn't get glasspacks is i do a fair amount of highway driving, like put on over 700km this weekend (problem free) so i dont want a drone. but my doors are so sloppy i think the wind out does them anyways
