I just don't think black would look very good on my blue over beige truck. If it was all blue then I prolly would go black.

I think I have decided that the Spy's dont have enough spokes for me. Also, Im thinking the Hoss' are too common.

Im pretty much between the Badlands and the BMF SOTAs.

Here are the SOTAs incase anyone doesnt know what they look like...

I won't bash but I'll tell you my experience. I've got BMF Novakanes on my truck. I got them in February. The roads got salted a few days later. It never snowed but it sprinkled rain the next day. I drove my truck in the rain. I washed the wheels off the next day in the freezing a$$ cold. Now, my wheels are pitted Also, the center caps that came with them didn't fit. The second set that they sent me didn't fit. The third set they sent me didnt' fit. 5 months later, I still don't have a set of center caps that fit my truck I think you get my point.......

P.S. Brock @ BMF told me that the caps work fine on the 05+ Super Dutys but still......

you know you could always buy a set of my bumpers to lose a little of that chrome and make the black wheels fit in better

Get chrome. I don't understand why people think they need to run their aftermarket chrome rims in the winter time. When they are salting the roads and crap...take them off, put your stockers on and leave it like that til the spring. If you don't want to switch wheels, buy black ones. I plan to run my BMFs in the nice months only, otherwise I got my stock 18" wheels with a set of 35" toyos that will work great in the winter.
