What would you think of these wheels on this truck?

Here's the truck. It will be painted before I buy rims for it. The truck will be a blue color that is sort of similar to the blue color that is used above and below the picture on the webpage I linked above (it will be shinier).

The wheel I'm looking at is this one: wheel
The wheel is not actually bluish, it's chrome and black. It's just reflecting something bluish.

The wheel in the picture is the same size as the ones on the truck right now.

to be totally honest the first thing that would come to mind if I saw those rims on a truck would be... waste of money :p However, I'm not much into modding cars and I'm sure you would get more enjoyment than I would.

I think they would look pretty good. try to get a side shot of the truck and do some cutting/pasting in photoshop etc. that's a good way of getting an idea....

I went out to take a picture of the truck at a better angle and my cameras batteries died. Doh! Charging now...

I think that truck would be sweet as hell with fresh paint and those wheels.

Put some American Racing rims on it or something, although those you picked will look okay.

I think they look close to the same that is on there. Just more shine to them. So I would go with yep.

I meant photochopping the rims on the truck, if he had a side shot of the truck. that wouldn't be too hard.

Yeah, but the rims are going on a blue truck, not a primer gray one :)

true. the whole thing would be a prime example of polishing a turd, but with some fresh paint it could work. :D
