    DAMN!! Did you run your wheels through a grinder/BFH gauntlet?

    Method’s Bronze was a little less copper at first (don’t know why) but after a few orders, they went with a more bright copper color from my understanding.

    Actually, on my weekend warrior I still run old school polished deep dish wheels. Had these wheels for over 12 years. I still think it looks good on that body style.

    I’ve never gotten into the tuner scene, not to say I haven’t admired some of the builds.

    That looks BADASS! Clean lines, classic tone, and you’re right, those rims accentuate to the aesthetics! Can’t stand wheels/rims that cannabalize the car, but adds to it!

    I think the high gloss finish will be fine. With the black center caps and lugs it won't be too much. I wouldn't do something that they done recommend (no top coat) and I think that Casper coat makes them too dark.

    On a side note. Does anyone wanna buy me some bronze 20's? Lol.
    Maybe I'll look into powder coating my stock wheels. Just the cost to dismount and mount tires is more than I can spend right now though.

    I leave my bronze roost a little dirty. It gives it a more toned down bronze luster.

    These TSS wheels are coming out great! I can’t wait to mount them. Gonna put a wheel ceramic coat on first before putting the tires on and mounting them.

    Doesn’t look so bad with the factory center caps. I was going to open with the grease caps.

    Watching this thread, have black TSS and wanted to do the same! Looking forward to finished pics. Upsizing the tires at all? Which shop did the work?

    I have a couple car buddies who run their own speed shop and powder coat their parts and projects.

    I went with BFG K02 275/60R20 so a little taller tire but still fit on factory suspension.

    Not yet. Been busy and still havent had time to get them mounted yet. I also ceramic coated them. All my hardware I wanted came in this week.

    I am chrome deleting on this Platinum truck. Door handles, side mirror covers and black nerds bars came in. I want to install them all at once with the wheels.

    Caps are stock flat black. My Guy didnt want to risk Powder Coating them because they are plastic and doesnt have the right equipment for plastic.

    If you wanted to paint those center caps, look at plastidip they have a fairly new color called brass monkey. It might be a close match. If not you can just peel it off anyway.

    I’m thinking NO centercap and do the grease cap mod for the rear.

    You wouldn't happen to know where I can order a set of the black center caps would you?

    I was told the same about my Chrome Caps.

    Hard to tell at night but got them mounted and deleted all the chrome.

    If you turn up your phone or screen brightness you can tell and see the bronze a bit.


    Day pics coming tomorrow.
