Anti-freeze green with shiny new dog dish caps.

I like some crazy colors.

I figure that would cover the green or the gold since the anti-freeze green has a gold glow to it.

i know where there are some 3/4 ton dodge van wheels with stainless caps on them. i am gettign the wheels because i know the guy. and dad was just going to sell the caps as scrap stainless.

anyway i only came here to give a way not to paint them. dont do it like a stock car. with a solid color and then stripes from the center out. i guess if you did it right you might be able to make it look like spoked mag wheels. you would have to make the stripes into angles as they toward the outer wheel.

dont do that. but i bet someone may try it and they may even make it look good from a distance too. hey maybe i will do it one day just to see if it could be done worth a hoot.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Maybe paint the wheels the same color as the truck and paint the hubs black, then get some fat chrome lug nuts for it.
