I just received my new [to me] wheels yesterday. They are HELO 835 Black...

I haven't decided on tires just yet and I'll wait 'til there is no more chance of snow around here to put them on. In the mean time, hear is an example of what they look like, in case you don't know...

I've never had a set of black wheels before so this is kinda going out on a limb for me.. I typically prefer bling but I also tend to like black wheels on the grey trucks, the price was right for these, they were the right size so I said "F-it! I'll give'm a whirl!" :D

What do you all think... You can be honest... my fiance is and she is NOT in favor. :(

wow, I usually don't like so much black on a wheel but those look awesome. should go great with the color of your truck!
You looking for an a/t? What size are your wheels btw?

I didn't think I would like black wheels either, but the wife put black on her mustang, and they looked pretty good so I put black on my truck and really ended up liking them.

I have been powder coating my wheels black for years....long befor it was popular. I love black wheels, Only thing I don't care for is that there are a lot of people with them not. I like to be different :D

I love Black wheels also. I am looking for 18's in an all black no chrome design-including the nuts and center cap but am having no luck. I may need to go to 20's which I'm ok with.
