matty you cant run those rims in 15 in , the only wheels you can run in 15 in are steel wheels , reason behind that statement : even with the 15 in steelies you more often than not have to grind down your calipers , with that rim it has that much more material because it is a cast wheel ,and the will not fit , maybe you could do 16 though , id def look into it further , p.s. i like those wheel verry classic look

Hey what are you looking to get for them? Also they should be fine with my teraflex 2.5 coil lift and shocks, right?

What's up everyone. I just wanted to put a pic up of my stock 18's that I got powder coated in matte black. I have spoken with a couple of you about getting it done and I finally pulled the trigger. Here is a pic I took today from my iPhone. If anyone wants to see more pics I'll get a real camera out and take a couple shots.

Here's a shot from the back. They are done in matte, so they're not flat but they are definately not glossy either. The slushy mess makes them look a little shiner than they really are in person.

Its very easy to touch-up a black steel rim.

Looks good, What did it set you back? (If you don't mind sharing)
And how long did it take to get done?

Matt red is one of the few colors I think looks better with a silver rim

Petenice15 those look great. I like the sahara rims black with a bigger tire on em looks good
