Longhorn needed some chrome wheels

[1guyandtools]

I love the truck other than the stock polished wheels with painted gray inserts on a black truck. I thought that chrome wheels would look much better and so I finally pulled the pin and put on 22" OE creations PR176 and Michelin defender LTX M/S
I did take the picture with the suspension in entry mode.

Sharp, I like black and chrome. Each to his own but I do not understand the current range of "black out everything", I think the highlights of chrome and the black (or gray in my case) really set off the truck.

Looks good, its a tasteful amount of black and chrome. As a side note, why are the tow hooks missing?

Its funny you ask. Before I put on the wheels I thought the hooks were to much chrome with the polished wheels, so I took them off. Now the wheels are on I think they might look ok and I have been contemplating putting them back on.

Thanks, you too. My buddy gave me a hard time about the wheels. they are almost identical to the wheels he has on his Denali. I told him that's fine, Take the best part of a GM truck ( the wheels ) and the best part of a Ram ( The truck ) and you have the best of both worlds. He didn't like that one but I giggle every time I see his truck

I really like those wheels. I completely agreed with you on the stock wheels. I couldn't find a set that I liked and I got a good deal on a set of 20" wheels. Do you have a link to these?

Nice! I will have to admit the a 20 wheel does ride better than a 22. I did not think a 2 inch difference in the side wall would matter, It does. I am going to run the stock wheels in the winter. I like your wheels and tires.

Thank you very much, I can't believe the ride difference between the 22" and the 20" wheels. I bought the 20" wheels for my winter wheels but I am truly loving the ride of the 20" wheels and I might not ever put the 22" wheels back on.
