I have a 2016 1500 Tradesman that looks just like this http://www.fivestaronline.com/assets/misc/12224/images/2016RAM2500.jpg including the butt ugly wheels.

Since I have a habit of bending the rims on my other vehicles (have no idea how it happens as I'm not driving them over curbs or off roading it) what I'd like to do is to find some wheel covers that I can just put over the 17" rims. Given the black bumper and grill, I'm thinking mostly black wheel covers with silver/chrome accents.

Any ideas?

A side question......will any 17" wheel cover do or do I have to get something specific for these wheels?

I don't think there are any covers, but I could be wrong. Have you looked into painting them?

Not really but part of the issue is the style so painting them wouldn't quite do it anyway.

Thanks for posting, though.

Seriously? Wheels do not just magically bend for no good reason. You are doing something to make it happen.

I'm not entirely clueless.

They're some fairly impressive potholes that I ran through in rain showers that I couldn't tell were potholes since they were full of water.
