    Considering changing up my stance a little bit and going with the Ray 10 rims whenever they drop and selling my TRD Pro rims. Part of me wants to get away from the all black rims and mix it up a little bit. Wondering how the Gunmetal or even a dark Bronze would look on my white truck that already has so much black on it (Both rims would have a black lip so wouldn't look totally out of place).


    Pictures for reference for the poll:

    As it sits:

    Hmmmmm............that dark bronze is growing on me. Think the gunmetal would look best on my truck though. What you guys think?

    Based on these pics, I think the gunmetal looks best.

    Good thing regular silver isn't an option for the group buy...then my decision would be even harder. Don't think you can go wrong with these Ray 10's.

    Still rocking the stock height.
    I like the gunmetal ones. I have been looking at different rims for me, and had not seen these before. I think I may get these soon in gunmetal.

    I’ll vote for gunmetal. I like them all but gray and white flows together nicely. Plus I have gray on my white truck and love it. Also from a distance the gray can look like black so you get both worlds. Here’s a pic of mine to maybe help your decision.

    Not sure when the GB starts but word is they are supposed to be getting them in late January. Don’t think you can go wrong with any of those 3!

    white and bronze is a classic combo that will set you apart from the rest of the crowd unless you hang with wrx folk in which case you will fit right in.

    I think I like gunmetal on white better, but there's definitely less of the bronze out there I'd say. That would make it tempting to me, as I like to be different.

    Edit: Now that I see keeping the TRD Pros is an option, I like those on the truck best of all...especially with the black bumpers. If you want rid of those TRD Pros and you're near me, I'll take them off your hands!
