Winter wheels for any vehicle aren't supposed to be pimpin. Looks good but you're gonna want some good tires on there Mike.

Looks good, but it ain't snowin' yet! Why'd you put the winter rims on so early? I won't take the 18's off my Jeep until there's the threat of snow in the forecast. :)

Not so early. It was 24 yesterday morning when I left my house at 630 :shock:. My truck's winter wheels go on this Friday.

True enough, it was 29 yesterday morning here. I'm still gonna wait a few more weeks though; I like freezing my arse off while changing the wheels out. :lol:

That doesn't look bad. You get the inserts for them though, it's make it look better...not that it matters that much since they're winter rims.

Nothing fancy but the inserts kind of break up the thickness of the spokes, it's a cheap easy mod that looks decent.
