Just like it says, I am thinking about painting my stock wheels black, or a medium graphite color. What do you guys think? |

http://s10.zetaboards.com/Dakota_Quad_Squad/topic/7252412/1/ i did it to my 03. I used duplicolor rim paint. I have had to touch them up when i changed tires because i scuffed up the paint |

My uncle painted his rims black on his dakota, and it looks great. So go ahead and paint them, Personaly i would paint them black, but thats my opinon, no matter what you do to the rims, they will look good because its a Dakota!

not really. The touch ups after winter will likely be about 20 bucks. Plus i dont really care for many of the aftermarket rim styles with the 6 lug bolt pattern. Edited by dodgedifferent2, Sep 9 2010, 06:23 PM.
