Silver Cruisers Unite!

So, the black and tan thread below got me wondering about different wheel/stripe/color combinations are out there with silver. I'm also looking for new wheels, and want to get an idea of options beside black.

Let's see the silver 60s!

Carp where did you find that one at? Looks like a nice one. I like the black tint on there. You wouldn't want to see my silver/ rust. I have stock rims and close to stock size tires. Nothing special about it. Ok mine can hold kayaks.

WES, thanks for the kind words, found mine in Atlanta, really happy with it. Tint is actually almost purple, but will be replaced soon, I hope. Going to put a winch bumper and sliders on in the next month and hope to black out the grille. But don't think I want to go black wheels. Guess that's why I started this thread, want some proof on which way to go...

Here's mine with a couple sets of non-OEM door guards. The lower ones (above the snake blinders) are now gone and just some remenants of adhesive are left...

I really love the look of this truck this way. If I ever have to do a repaint, this is in the running...

Keep 'em coming, lots of good looking trucks on here.

Thanks!

Hopefully in the next couple of weeks the roof rack will be done and set-up for the RTT.....I'm trying to get it ready for a Colorado trip in Sept...
