Been really struggling with which wheels to go with on this truck...

I have a '19 1500 Limited. I'm blacking out the bulk of the chrome (badges, tow hooks, etc). Leaving the grill and probably "limited" as chrome.

What's your opinions on wheel colors for the truck? The obvious and safe option is just a nice matte black.

For some reason I keep eyeing down this wheel:

Just not sure how it would end up looking on the vehicle, would the brass colour just look really out of place?

The struggle..

I dunno. I saw someone with a black Limited that had black/brass wheels kinda like the one above. I didn’t like it but to each their own.

Personally I really like the upgraded 22” inch wheels that RAM offers. Yes it’s not super unique since others can get it easily but I like the look. The painted inserts look really good with Granite Crystal.

I like the new wheels as well, but I don't like the size of them. 22's just don't give you enough rubber to play with, imo. It can be particularly bad in Northern Canada when the snow can literally cover curbs and walkways in parking lots and such.

I am not a Granite guy, but I have been thinking along the same line for wheels. I have a Delmonico red truck, but I think gold/tan highlights work on the limited for some reason. I just removed the RAM and 4x4 badging yesterday. I have the black 1500 badges installed. I went to install the black 5" tips from Pypes, but they are a horrible fit so I am sending them back. May make my own. Here are the wheel choices I had in mind. One is a little off the reservation, but thats me sometimes.

Ugghh the wheels were attempted delivery yesterday and I wasn't home to get them!!

Oh well, probably wouldn't have done anything with them until next week anyway. I hate waiting.

Why is it that these companies are quick to sell us things, yet real slow to respond back when there’s issues. With that being said I’m feeling you’re going to end up with a great set of wheels to set off the color of your truck. [emoji1531]

I’m a chrome guy buy those rims really match your truck. Almost matches the decal kits you have.
