I like the wheels, just not the blue on them. It’s irrelevant what I or others think though.
Well....I should have put a disclaimer that it's "a non binding" question....LOL.
If I didn't wanna get opinions I wouldn't have asked.
Can't please everyone all the time....but can sure piss them all of at once!! Lol

It seems that my general rule on body color wheels is that they look the same sitting as moving, so with a spoked wheel it would be something along the outer edge of the wheel or in the center cap area. Your rallys were/are a good candidate for a body color refresh imo, as they have a continuous section to color.

That's an interesting take....but the rallys are definitely NOT going back on!!! Waited 3 decades to finally put aftermarket ones on! Lol

Well.....that's what it looks like out in the sun.
Much happier that I put the blue across the top of the roll pan.
I'd say the color match is as about as close as you can get on a 30 year old truck.

Thoughts?
Comments?
Ya?
Nay?

Obviously (hopefully) that's just tape painted and stuck on for a visual reference.

Maybe someone with the center cap?....if I decide to do it.

I kinda like the tying in of the body color to the wheel.
Since the truck was originally going to be painted black, that's why I bought black wheels, and now since boss woman says that ain't happening, figured this may be a good option to go with. And if I don't like them, I can paint them black again. They are removable for those who don't know.
I agree that those wheels need something,all black is boor-ing. What about silver on the spokes and star in the middle with a blue pinstripe around the rim.

Wow, the tailgate and roll pan turned out nice!

Not feeling the blue on the wheels though. Maybe try silver on some tape and see how that looks?
Interesting....may have to try that next weekend.
Was just visiting @Sean Buick 76 , his neighbor has the same wheels on a new jacked up white GM, his spokes and the star are white. Looks pretty good.
